I should google things before opening my big mouth
once again, I put my foot in my mouth
I just would never think of putting a clam in fresh water
hope it works
I have now learnt something new

Don't think so... Not yet. Someone asked how does it smell. What's the verdict?

It doesn't smell. I poked it this morning and it closed half way so I guess it's still alive. I will give it some time then I guess.

If it doesn't smell leave it alone its still alive. Dead clam is one of the most wretched smells.

I'd say it's about done, sorry.

The way I know something has died is if I see a bristle worm poking out of its hole in broad daylight or my nassarius snails are up out of he sand bed and cruising around ,doesn't look good for our clam n the pic
