I don't think we have freshwater clams in ponds where I live. Would be interesting to find out though. gonna do a search. Thanks for sharing your adventure.
Dude, check the life cycle of freshwater clams before you put them with your fish. I had some ruin the fins of my fish years ago and learned a valuable lesson.
You weren't going to make this into a video!?!? But it's awesome! That's one incredible pond.. and freshwater clams. Dang. What part of the world is your father in? I want a clam-filled pond like that someday, haha!
freshwater bivalves have a parasitic larval stage on fish. this is actually how they spread from places. introduce a fish with baby clams attached from somewhere and they fall off them they morph
I used to keep fresh water Clams but when I moved they ended up dying off because I never got the water back to being super green but they are a lot of fun
That was the question I am desperately digging for all over the Internet and now I'm on RUclips. If they start breeding like crazy are they going to kill my little bitty aquarium fish. I see you've got some little bitty aquarium fish in there. I've been told they need larger fish with gills that can handle them until they drop out 🧐 but my Molly's my full grown mature mollies look to be the same size as what you just put in there. Did your fish make it??
Hello everyone, be sure to check out the new newts =) ruclips.net/video/mdxZgqxETOA/видео.html
Very Cool. Such a gorgeous pond your Dad has, what a peaceful place. Loved it.
Glad you enjoyed it
Beautiful pond, I would love to have a place like that just to sit and chill after a long day at work.
Yup, its so peaceful and relaxing.
Clams.... everything I need in my tank and didn't even know it till now 😊
Awesome video! Clams are pretty cool! Especially freshwater!!! They look so cool! Good luck with the clams!!! Best of luck and wishes!!!😉👍
Very cool pond, love hearing all the animal sounds in the background. The clam are awesome, who would have thought you would find those in there.
Love the newts and freshwater clams!!! And such a beautiful pond!
Cool looking pond that you collected them from!! Love the background music (wild life).
Learn something everyday! Can’t wait to see how they turn out in the tank :)
Cool neat freshwater clams. I would love clams to go with my mussels.
What a beautiful pond!
Great video. It gave me lots of ideas. Be very careful when bringing "wild things" into your aquarium. Monsters lurk. . .
G'day Mr Steenfott. Your pond is beautiful.
Clams? Very cool. Your dad is a ninja w/ the rake . LOL.
Love the video. Fresh water clams are awesome.
Enjoyed the video, and your Dad's pond is awesome!

That is a nice looking pond.
Cool stuff Bob! I am curious if the clams will filter out the green water and the pond will eventually be clear again.
Only time will tell =)
Arizona gardens sells them i also saw them on other fish sites but forget names of sires

How cool!!
Just when I think I can't anything else to my "I think I want that" list.....
Very interesting! Keep us updated on how they do!
Nice pond! You should include it in more videos :-)
They prefer really dirty water. They are a really good filter
That is so cool!
Awesome. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Sweet pond
That's a big pond!
Love your stuff.
Cool vid bob I want clams now ;)
Clams are good!
I find mussels in our local lakes but not clams, they would be cool to try.
It will be interesting to see how they do.
coolest how to quarantine these clams from the wild :D "D anyone else keeping clams at home?:D
Its pretty rare for diseases to transfer from snails to fish. Same with shrimp.
Me
@@Goreptiles Woww thats cool cant wait to see your vids :D

Wam bam thank you clams
Would love some for my tank!!
Interesting. Didnt know you could have clams in an aquarium.
I used to keep fresh water Clams but when I moved they ended up dying off because I never got the water back to being super green but they are a lot of fun
Is there a clam update video?
Never saw them again.
@@SteenfottAquatics lol makes sense, it would be a short video
Count me in!
Nice pond!
love the pond
How did you even get that tank that green?
That's awesome 😊
Mmmm clams
If I find freshwater clams in a stream can I put them right in their own tank?
clam, clammy, clam up, clam clam clam
What happens when they clean the green water?
I'm gonna have to go drag my dad's pond now and see if I can't fin some clams!
Coolness
If your clams get big enough can they be eating ?
That's a cool find! How big do the clams get?
Here from the livestream!
cool cool
Clams! I want sooooome!
have those in our creek also =)
I think I’d be to worried about introducing something unwanted. I’m interested in seeing a follow-up at the end of the season.
Fresh Clam...Emm. LOL
The only kind i like.
what are the food you feed them?
Very nice!
Great Video
Sweet
very cool
Are these claims easy to breed?
Nice video.

I've wanted milfoil weed in my tank awhile though💙. That pond is dreamy!!!!! I love this video!!!!
clams would be cool. The dragonfly larvae scares me...
I thought about putting clams in a overhead sump
