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).
