"Substrate Burrower - Golden Clams

E-mail this listing to a friend






only .89
Quantity:




a.k.a. Freshwater Asian Clams

(Corbicula fluminea)

Native to: Tropical South Asia, Africa, and Austrailia


Larger than a nickel, smaller than a silver dollar, and usually about the size of a Quarter. You do not need to feed them, they are filter feeders, and they will feed off micro-organisms and waste in your aquarium! When you first get them, acclimate them as you would any other new fish, drop them in your aquarium, and gently push them just a touch into your substrate. They prefer to bury themselves in "small" gravel or sand substrates, so no larger- sized rock substrates. They will move around on their own, and will NOT disturb your plants or their roots.

STOCKING INFO: for aquariums use 1 snail per 6 square inches of substrate space. For Ponds use up to 1 per gallon.

Minimum order: No less than 10"



"Substrate Burrowers
THESE CAN BE ADDED TO YOUR PLANT ORDER!

These fellas won't harm your plants, and they'll help keep your soil aerated, kinda like havin' an earthworm in your garden except in your aquarium......Try em, they're really beneficial"



i need ideas if any body has ever used them and if there wat there said to be...

if so then the will be filter feeder/ extra cleaning while relesing any nitrogen in gravel and created some bioload for my plants to use.
