Okay so two questions: Do you use Phosdown the same way as RowaPhos, in a phosban type reactor?
Never heard of the clam method, is there some science behind this? How does it work? Okay so that's 3 questions

 the amount used depends on your system size.My answer to question 3 is apparently it works well if you have loads of money to buy all the clams.

I got the suggestion from the book Giant Clams In The Sea And The Aquarium by James Fatherree. Nitrate has to be supplemented when they are aquacultured because in mass they do a thorough job of stripping it from the water.
Aptasia could also be used in a refugium because its so good at consuming waste from the water column. I think some people who raise the Aptasia eating nudibranchs culture it like that. So theres another less conventional one that we could all afford. Any takers?

I have recently updated the Foz Down web page with the stores that carry it for sale. Here is the updated page.
http://www.oceanfreshaquarium.com/foz-down.html For people in the Langley, Abbotsford, Chilliwack, Hope area you can purchase directly. If there is no local store to you I believe Eli(Fiji Reef Rock) ships as well as myself. I have seen clam filters successfully used. The 150 gallon system had over 50 large clams and a ton of fish with no algae problems.
