anyone ever heard of cherry/cleaner clams?

I was reading on a forum about cleaner clams or cherry clams and I don't want to buy them online and I can't find them at the fisherore. Anybody ever heard of them? The forum on saltwaterfish.com says that the can be bout packed with ice at a grocery store or seafood stores and they would be alive. Is this true? Would you ask for them alive or does it not matter?

dont waste you money. these clams are touted as nitrate reducers but in fact they are nitrate producers.

but to answer your question these clams are just like the clams you get at the seafood market that you steam and eat with butter.
