your LFS should have some. Aquabid is usually selling some as well.

Why on earth would you want clams?

Cause I have never had clams and since there is sand, and clam provide a little bit of cleaning power, I thought I'd ask.
 
FW clams need a food supplement to live for any prolonged period of time in a normal aquarium setup. I feed mine, who are by themselves in the winter in a 6G tank, zooplankton. In the summer they go in the pond where there is plenty of stuff for them to sift.

They are not a good member of a clean up crew in FW. Usually what happens is they starve to death and rot under the sand, ammonia spikes, fish get sick and possibly die. Best to avoid them in these setups, though they are amazingly good at clearing up pea soup algae.
 
Ah, bummer.

What is your experience with Blue Johanni Cichlids?
 
Well if it was a species tank could I do it?
 
They will work with others, they are just a tad more aggressive than some. Species tank would work for any Mbuna, just make sure you have hiding places and the right amount of males and females.
 
Okay this seems pretty simple except that the males are real horny.
