Anyone have any tips on keeping freshwater mussels in an aquarium? I know they need lots of phytoplanton, but I was thinking of putting seting up a second tank in a window as an algae culture, and then slowly circulating the water through the tank holding the mussels via airline tubing. Any thoughts?

Very difficult, I have been keeping fish for 55 years and so far my success with mussels is zero. Asian clams are easier but only by comparison...
