candycane Active Member Jul 3, 2008 #2 Yes. Unless the levels are extremely high and they die from it.
viper_930 Active Member Jul 3, 2008 #3 All tridcanca clams do. It's actually the zooxanthellae within the clams' mantle that feed off the nitrates though, but unless you have many clams it's not an effective way to export lots of nitrates.
