I think you have misunderstood me. I don't want clams for the sake of lowering nitrates, I want clams because I think they are gorgeous! I was just under the impression that having a considerable clam population would impact nitrate levels. For the last 10 years or so my tanks have always had undetectable nitrates once they mature, so I was more concerned about having to dose nitrate than anything, and maybe being able to stock 1 or 2 fish more than I normally would. Maybe not...as always I will plan, but in the end I will play it by ear.
