Quick Question about cleaner clam

[dapak83]

My tank just finished cycling and I performed the water change... I was wondering can I put the cleaner clam in there first while I am getting all the rest of the inverts!?

"Cleaner clams" are filter feeders that burrow into your substrate. They normally don't do very well, but in a new setup, they will starve due to lack of food.
