clams

[SeaHorse_Fanatic]

Thank you Willow. Yes, I have mine placed high up in the water column, attached to oyster shells & resting on an algae covered flat rock. I'm getting good growth (approx. 8mm since the fall) & it's colours are outstanding. I now also have a blue/green rimmed Squamosa & a new Hippo clam next to it. 10000k 96w PC with 2@3' 20000k T-5

I use Liquid Reactor for calcium & feed rotifers/phyto mix several times a week.

Would they be happier under MH? Probably. Would BC Hydro be happier if I went with MH? Definitely But your question was if it is possible to have success with clams under PC so "Yes" under the right conditions.

I had a derasa under PC I found it did better under MH but it did well under PC and it had amazing colour. Once I got MH for it I started to see even nicer colour.
