Well....when I moved my clam from my old tank into the new, I didn't want to chance any unplanned hitchikers so I removed the clam from the tank water and scrubbed the outer shell with a plastic toothbrush to clean out any critter that might be hiding in a crevice. It didn't seem to bother that clam a bit as it was fine for 2 years after that treatment.
