    never.

    after reading through 3reef and gettin advise from some of the "big names" around here I've been thinking spot feeding clams is completely unnecessary...

    I still wonder if the Mg was causing it grief, but I don't discount not having spot fed phyto.

    I did put about 5ml of phyto in the DT about 2x a month though... just broadcast for the pods and dusters...

    I don't think not feeding phyto was the issue. I have never fed any of my clams and they are all growing well and look very healthy.

    do you have pin worms? if you do- there is your answer.

    BTW, you will need red light to see them- I have a few spare Red ultra bright LED's- I could send you one- you will only need a small 12v psu.
