Ultra Clam review thread

[michika]

I'm debating it. Although things like this are a huge battle for me because I worry that its just one more thing to do every day. I'm really curious as to how this will play out. I think its a very interesting product from what I've read.

Hi catherine

As a clam lover I promise you it would not be something you would regret, if you wish I can put you in direct contact with our guy in Michigan that feeds all his imports on it. Also we have another clam lover in Ottawa that cant get enough of it. He was the first to try it, and has not looked back.

This is one product that does not need marketing hype, used correctly you WILL see results.

Do you know what kind of results people see? I think its something I will try, however it obviously has to wait until the new year. I'm very cautious about additives and such, a) 'cause I'm lazy and don't want to do daily dosing if I don't have to, and b) a lot of companies won't disclose what is in their products. Clearly though you guys don't fall into category b.

I'll definitely watch this thread for a couple of weeks and see what pops up. I usually do my dry goods ordering for the year in January, so maybe I'll add it to my list and see what happens.

The initial results appear within about 10 days these being greatly extended polyps and following on from that enhanced colouration.

Long term benefits are increased growth rates, desease fighting strength and for nearly imported clams, a much quicker recovery period.

When you say polyps are we talking SPS polyps?

[Aqua-Digital]

Sorry, I was giving a broad range expectation, as the Ultra clam has MinS in it some of this will be absorbed by the SPS and you will see increased polyp extension and increased feeding activity from any filter feeder

A bit further advise from guys using it, they have seen greater results by cloud feeding and only feeding directly now and again, this then enables the whole tank to benefit from this fine filter food.

Ok i thinkI have this sorted out with the stuff pretty easy.
Dec 24- dosed 2 ml of Ammino Acid. first thing
made up some paste, ultra min clam food sucked out the blue liquid then dosed a bit in the tank. im only using around 1 ml every time I feed thou I dont want to over feed.
Dec 25 dosed Ammino Acids again
and fed 2 times with the clam food.
Dec 26 same thing. Noticed that hte huge Squamosa has a brighter color today , may be its just me.
Dec 27 going to take some pictures of the clams and the sps with their PE
on my Bule tip stag the PE is crazy to.

Just one question. Can I dose the Ammino 2 times per day say 1.5ml in the morning and 1.5 ml in the evening?
What happnens when you dose to much ammino acids to the tank.
Oh ya does the filter sock have anything negitive effects on the tank wil it catch all the food?
