Is this a clam/oyster....any good for the tank?
I was feeding my tank this afternoon, and what I thought were dead clam/oyster/muscle shells, happen to be very much alive. I tapped the two of these, 1/4=1/2 inch shells, and they slammed shut, to open a 10 seconds later.
I'll be able to get a pic up later this week, But are these things good for the tank? Apparently they've been in my tank for about 11 months now. But do they take a lot of good things out of the tank? They're nothing to look @, such as a maxima, or a desera, or anything like that, but they're a clam of some sort. Just curious if i should pop these guys out of the tank, or leave them be. Marc

Leave them alone. They're filter feeders that often come in on live rock, and generally don't last long. Just the fact that they are still alive in your tank tells me that they are contributing to water quality, not hurting it.
