Interesting facts on clams I never knew. đđŽó §ó ąó łó Łó Žó ż
Giant clams don't let go!
Wow giant clans are such cool creatures.
Do you think they will become used in aquaculture much? It seems a good way to preserve their species. Itâs also advantageous that the algae provide most of the clams food, so really theyâd only need some minor nutrients and sunlight plus filtered water to exist in aquaculture. Great vid!
Clans??
clans đđđđ
đ yall don't miss nothing chill
Loving your narration voice. Tranquil and calming.
I keep a captive bred Maxima clam and I enjoy watching it filter the water it has such beautiful colors.
Thanks for your videos
This is the ocean police. We heard that you have one of our clams held captive. What are your demands?
Looks like a big space plant
Wow, very beautiful giant clams...Thanks for sharing this info...

Wow
Nice video
What would happen if you bring a giant clam from the Indo-Pacific to the Atlantic ocean in the Caribbean sea?
@@joshuasebsebe1047 Interesting question, but I hope we don't find out. Invasive lionfish are already a problem in the Caribbean.
They must be protected!
From what? Did I miss something?
@@hensonlaura From poachers and etc.
Yum
Grandicimo đ
Giant clams have eyes? Wth?
Nice
Looks like science fiction food.
đ
They eyes are disappear đïž
where are the eyes?
Don't think they have any.
Itâs on their lips like tiny holes, they have many. You canât see them. And they donât have a lens
No pearls allowed. This must be some kind of test. You must steward and not put this in your mouth.
:D
I won't ever eat this by myself. Let's be more efficient with other ingredients like chicken đ and beef.
Theyâre disgusting
No
I wanted to know if they have tongue like other clams
You mean a foot, used to dig with? I don't think so. These clams stay fixed in place. They don't dig into the sand for protection, they just clamp shut.
