I want to buy some freshwater clams. Does anybody sell some or know where I can buy in NYC or on the internet?

these are the ones you want.. they are small and bury themselves in the substrate. you can watch the substrate move, it's really cool.
the big black ones are tough to keep and if you keep them with fish they will just become fish chow. they don't bury themselves completely.. and they hang out with their shells partially open and the fish pick at em till they die and then eat em. or if you have bigger fish.. like my RTC and my big peacock bass, they don't bother with the killing part, they just break the shells and eat em.
that is unless you want them for fish food.. then i guess the bigger ones would be better because you would be getting more bang for your buck.
