How do you feed your Clam......
 
Just wondering what we're some of your feeding methods for your clams I've had a couple for about 6 months and havnt fed them at all. I do feed rodifers and cyclops to my tank but that's all. Nothing direct.

That's all you need. If your clams are over 2 inches then they don't require feed but it's a benifit.
I turn off return pump add rotifers and hour later turn pump on

can you directly feed a clam? Don't they only passively filter out plankton on the super itty bitty scale? Other than adding uber small micron foods to the water column, is there any other method?

I dose about 500 ml of phyto 3 or 4 times a week and everything seems to love it clam included. I brew my own phyto in order to make this cost effective

Nothing that isn't in the tank already

The only thing I feed my clams is Kalk. Since adding my second squamosa, that amount has gone up a lot.
