I know of a hobbyist that thought it would be cool to stick his finger in the mantle of a clam to feel it and "SNAP!" it shut tight on his finger. He had to pry it open with a screwdriver and it cut completely through the skin and soft tissue down to the bone.

Sounds like an intelligent individual. And I thought MY avatar made people cringe.

Funny in the end...only because all made it. This thread scared me for a bit because I keep both animals. My clam clamped on my net somewhat inadvertetly while I was doing general cleaning/sweeping stuff. They do not let go until left alone....I just dropped the net and about an hour later he let go. Now I am really hoping my hippo tang stays the hell away!!
