Default Re: Clams: How Do I Know...

Our Calcium is 540 at last check and we feed Phyto-feast regularly. We haven't been checking Iodine, but do weekly water changes, so we're probably good, but I'll get an Iodine test kit to be sure.

Amusingly, the Marine Depot site shows this as a high maintenance clam, and can be nipped and harassed by clown gobies, blennies, shrimp, and most Angelfish and Butterfly fish. We are only missing a butterflyfish to complete the harassment picture on this.... but of course I can get a CopperBanded just to be thorough...

But my big question is, how do we know if the tank is ready and stable enough for a clam?
