You need good cross flow so 2 powerheads best. Clams wont do very well under PC lighting.Also the BTA dont do to well under PC lighting but some get buy.
What type of substrate are you going to have? |

The zebra lionfish gets to about 7" in length, and might eat the clownfish. The lights might be a little weak for the BTA. They seem to be a bit variable in their requirements. A maxima clam will require stronger lights, either a good T5 setup or a good MH setup.
