What detrivor's are safe for clams

[biggdriver]

Want to get a detrivor kit for my dsb, live sand activators etc,,What kind of things are safe for them..No worms etc..

Stay away from shrimp and crabs. I know this really hampers your options but Nasseris Snails (sp?) bury into the sand to emerge at night and feed. They work great in my tank so far. I also have neon gobies on the way that will take care of things during the day.

None of the worms in my tank have bothered my T. Crocea, and some of them are over 6" long, the biggest is over a foot! My yellow cuke is no problem, as are none of my snails although they do occasionally crawl on the shell to graze.

The biggest threat to clams are boring snails that arrive as hitchhikers, fish, and some crabs (not ususally hermits) and shrimp. "Standard" detritivore kits should contain nothing harmful. You can alweays ask the vendor before purchasing one.
