I'm teaching a Zoology class. I've got four tanks set up and cycled for invertebrates. They're only 10gal, but carefully managed so they've cycled and balanced out OK. Lit by floursecents, good water flow, chemical and physical filters, heated.
The students will be dissecting store bought marine molluscs form the fish market, i.e., scallops or mussles.
I'd LIKE to keep the clams alive before dissection, but have no knowledge of clams that are fished for as opposed to reef clams.
Any ideas about species that are commonly sold as food? I could chill the tank if I need to, as the tank is 67F without the heater on.
I've prepped a 4inch deep sand bed, and can toss in some zooplankton if they need it.
