Can you Freeze a Clam?

[cam78]

I bought a clam at the store and froze it. Can I cut it up and feed the fish with it? Is there anything wrong with that?

Nope, not at all. Freezing them will keep them fresher for longer. I freeze mine, thaw them out in warm water and then, voila!

Cool, I put some of it in. My Butterfly ate it. WHOA!!!! Is clam nutrious for the butterly?

 

[jmerk]

Yes.

buying frozen seafood from the deli is a good way to make your own meals for your tank and its ALOT cheaper than buying those little cube packs made by the fish food companies.
I buy squid/clam/shrimp/scallops/fish and cut it up for them.

Yeah I bet its cleaner for the water too. I was thinking about that but I realized it is a real pain cutting the food into small enough pieces to fit in a fishes mouth.
