no one knows how long they can live. its thought that some species could live for as little as 15 to 20 years on up to as long as hundreds
they all can spawn multiple times a year |

they are best if eaten before they expire. Jk
I often wonder what my big clam would taste like? It would make a nice chowder! I remember the Survivor episode where they got this 18 inch clam that was awesome in color and ate it. One mans cow is another's clam??

EWW that was about as rough as the clam episode! All must eat though and what is available first, is usually eaten first.
