I’m not familiar with the light. Clams like a little no3. Check your calcium and alk and keep them in your desired range.post some pics to keep updated on the clams progression.

If your tank likes 7.0 keep it there. Your tank will find the balance. my tank likes 7.3. I’ve tried to maintain 8 but it is happiest where it’s at.

I honestly only check 3 things, alk, NO3 & PO4. Usually everything else falls in line if you’re dosing 2 part, etc. Keep alk stable and as long as you have measurable N&P, you’ll be fine. Light is the most important thing with clams, especially maxima abs crocea (really, all clams).
