I'm wondering if anyone has ever kept a supermarket live clam (those clams sitting on ice in the seafood case) in their tanks.  I've heard they can be acclimated to our tanks and are great filter feeders like a cleaner clam that might be sold online. 

I'm tempted to try it, but want to know how to go about it first.

Thanks!

Then no way I'll try that.  Thanks.
