    This is pure speculation but I've always thought of Shelly as one of those tacky fake parrots people would use for decoration in the 60s. I have no idea if that's what they were going for, but it seemed pretty on-brand with Stephen's original theming for SpongeBob.

    Spongebob's clam never makes sounds. What if his clam isn't alive?

      Shelly is a scallop
      Scallops are able to fly around, while clams can't and are much bigger.
      Still, I'm pretty sure that's the only one we see being in the sea instead of on land, like every other clam we see.

    Maybe Shelly is just a plastic singing clam, like these singing fishes. Maybe the battery is simply out, because otherwise it would be really annoying. This could definitely explain her in a new episode.

    Clams have smoothed edges along their shells, while scallops typically have ribboned edges. Clams burrow under the sand and stay there, while scallops constantly move and swim. Clams have a chewier texture and saltier taste, while scallops tend to be softer and have a more subtle flavor.

    Scallops and clams are both bivalves (mollusks with two shells) but Scallops can actually swim in the water while clams are either sedentary (don’t move) or use their muscular foot to move around the sea floor. Also Scallops have rudimentary “eyes”

    Scallops are birds in SpongeBob because irl scallops swim with a fluttering like motion.
    Also the biggest difference between clams and scallops is just that, scallops are extra mobile while clams are more sedentary. Scallops tend to sit on top of the sand to be able to flutter away from potential predators while clams usually move with the use of a "foot" and usually dig into the sand to avoid predators.

    Scallops have ridged and "wavy" shells, and are active swimmers. Clams have smooth and rounded shells, and spend almost all their time burrowed under the sea floor. Technically all the clams in spongebob are scallops.
