Looks like a big space plant
Wow giant clans are such cool creatures.
Do you think they will become used in aquaculture much? It seems a good way to preserve their species. It’s also advantageous that the algae provide most of the clams food, so really they’d only need some minor nutrients and sunlight plus filtered water to exist in aquaculture. Great vid!
Clans??
clans 💀💀💀💀
😂 yall don't miss nothing chill
Interesting facts on clams I never knew. 👍🏴
Everyone hear me out-
🤨
???
My thoughts exatly

👀
Giant clams don't let go!
Loving your narration voice. Tranquil and calming.
I keep a captive bred Maxima clam and I enjoy watching it filter the water it has such beautiful colors.
Thanks for your videos
This is the ocean police. We heard that you have one of our clams held captive. What are your demands?
I didn’t know they contract like that. How strange!

Wow, very beautiful giant clams...Thanks for sharing this info...
Thank you for such interesting fact. I am in love with aquatic creatures.
I love your videos
👍
Very beautiful.
:D
Wow
Nice video
What would happen if you bring a giant clam from the Indo-Pacific to the Atlantic ocean in the Caribbean sea?
@@joshuasebsebe1047 Interesting question, but I hope we don't find out. Invasive lionfish are already a problem in the Caribbean.
No pearls allowed. This must be some kind of test. You must steward and not put this in your mouth.
Wow, very beautiful giant clams...
Yum
Nice
The color is really beautiful
They must be protected!
From what? Did I miss something?
@@hensonlaura From poachers and etc.
They eyes are disappear 👁️
Giant clams have eyes? Wth?
All clams have eyes
Looks like science fiction food.
Grandicimo 😅
where are the eyes?
Don't think they have any.
It’s on their lips like tiny holes, they have many. You can’t see them. And they don’t have a lens
I won't ever eat this by myself. Let's be more efficient with other ingredients like chicken 🐔 and beef.
They’re disgusting
No
I wanted to know if they have tongue like other clams
You mean a foot, used to dig with? I don't think so. These clams stay fixed in place. They don't dig into the sand for protection, they just clamp shut.
