What do you have for clams, what do you dose, how often do you dose, and how much. Also how long does a container of what you use last you. Thanks!!

tank size, and w/c frequency, other livestock all play key in the success of dosing. what are your specs?

I meant this post to be a list of what people are doing in their tanks, that work.

it think you got it wrong. there is no set "formula". tell me what your specs are and then we can draft you a scheme that will work

JHC

18g weekly waterchanges

Great - now lighting - stock and water peramiters.

youcandoit!

I'm not asking what I should, I'm just asking what other people have and what works for them, that way every time someone who wants to get into clams doesn't have to make a post about their own setup, the can just find another member who has a similar setup and START there. If I wanted an exact answer on my setup I'll just ask my LFS guy, there is actually 1 or 2 you can still trust now a days.

well i got a heavy load of SPS and a clam and i dose B-Ionic 2 Part every day. i also supplement Mg with Kent Tech-M and B-Ionic Mg supplement. lastly i add some Phyto every other day for the clam.

Clam in Question: Tridacna Crocea

I have a 29BC

I have two clams, a Maxima and a Crocea and a few sps and lps. I currently use Crystal sea marine mix for salt. I do 2 gallon WC weekly. (Going to up that to 4 gallons)

I am dosing with C Balance @ 14 ml daily, dividing the dose in two. (7 ml in the morning and 7 ml at night)

Dose Kent Tech M, Reef Builder and Reef advantage ca lcium twice a week

I cant seem to keep KH or Ca up(thats the reason I'm upping WC)

KH testing at 7-9
Ca testing at 380- 420

I have 5 clams in a 44 gallon (total volume) tank....but b/c I only have zoas and softies otherwise i was only using a weekly water change to help bring everything back up to the correct levels....but now that the clams are growing a bit i'm dosing once a week with C-Balance and the parameters are

Calcium- 460-480
Alk - 8
Ph- 8.0-8.2 (day and night)
