Hitchhiker clam ID with pics
Hi gang,
Just got my live rock and found this, anyone know what type this is? Also, do I need to feed it at all after the tank cycling period is over? thanks |

Cool, thanks for the reply. I planned on adding some phyto and pods once my tank is cycled to get populations up for a few weeks before we get any fish

In general, how long could clams/oysters last without feeding? For this large hitchhiker clam, I didn't plan on adding any phyto until the cycling period was over but this may take a few weeks.
