Hi Guys, I'm new to Marine keeping. I am currently still cycling my 4 feet tank, and keeping clams is one of my chosen option. However, I see that there can be rather stringent criterias I need to watch and take care of before I keep one. Can someone please gide me to successful clam keeping? I only wish to keep easy clams, for variety purpose, not those expensive clams... Can someone guide me how to feed a clam too? And what to feed as well. Thanks.

Big clam -> good light good water esp ca

Small clam -> plus feed feather filter food.

Yes Ca is important for keeping clam. Need to dose ca. Mine keep at 400 above for ca and all 4 of them doing well.

My calcium was 500 last Sat, although I haven't keep a clam yet, I believe other LPS corals does consume abit of everything also, right?

Is keeping Calcium at 500 alright for LPS and Clams keeping? How about fishes? Will 500 Ca give problems to fishes and shrimps?

      Thanks for all the queries and it is overwhelming. I decided to close this thread for now to better structure how the decomm is going to take place progressively. Sorry that I may not be able to response to all and hope to seek your understanding that this will have to be carry out in stages to minimize disruption to the livestock.
