Guys and Gals,
These calms are non photosynthetic. Because of this they, like fish, are net producer of nutrients instead of remove them. This is just plain crazy to use them to remove nitrates from your system because they produce ammonia with turn to nitrates, not remove them. They are filter feeder, so they can remove bacterial plankton or whatever food they eat from the water, which can be detrimental to other filter feeder in your tank.

I can attest to this.. I froze a few lbs of Manilla clams overnight. The next day I thawed a few in warm water and they all were living.. Crazy..
