The Clam Keeper Kit
Tridacnid clams can pose distinct challenges for reef aquarists.They require strong lighting, pristine aquarium water and regular supplemental offerings of live phytoplankton (especially as juveniles).Everyone (including experienced aquarists) can use any help in providing the comfiest home for these delicate animals.Selected item-by-item to promote the health of captive tridacnids, the Clam Keepers Kit puts everything in one place with a comprehensive starter pack.
