Takara Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 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!! Link to comment

Takara Posted September 1, 2009 Author Share Posted September 1, 2009 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. Link to comment

Hanser Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 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 Link to comment
