Neatest hitch hiker in my tank yet

[Nano]

Just found a small clam(mussel?) of some sort on my sand bed... weird cause I dip everything I put in my tank... looks like your general run of the mill clam nothing special.. dang would have been cool if it was a mini croacea or something
here it is ---- anyone know what type it is? I am already sure its nothing that will grow to be a sexy clam lol, but a neat little find none the less

I've got a half dozen bivalves in Rock crevises.

There a bonus to me

we've had 1 for @ 3 years, thought it was just a shell but it has doubled in size so it must be alive.

With all those ribs I'm thinkin' maybe even a scallop

We have some green clams on our rock and they look like mussels

Neat, yeah this little guy is pretty responsive to movement in the tank he opens and closes regularly, i didnt notice it until today, as it was slowly scooting across the sand some how?

Ours is cemented to a rock, it hasn't moved a mussel

"CLAMS HAVE FEET!!!"-sorry old BC comic strip.i have tons of bivalves in my tank-mostly slipper oysters and mussels-kinda neat to watch a mussel crawl across the rock work

I remember that
Apparently they got legs too
