I'm having some algae issues in my lps and clam tank. I was thinking of adding a PO4 remover to see if it will help. But have heard that clams don't do well with a iron based PO4 remover?

Anyone here using a PO4 remover in a tank with clams?

TIA

I do. I haven't seen any problems yet, but I do use a small amount. Starting out with a small amount should help with limiting the swing in water parameters.
