comments,
- When these bivalves are still young, they hunker down on the first coral they can find…""Where they become couch potatoes of epic proportions
- Massive mollusks like these were once considered man-eaters and monsters of the deep.""Is there any truth to those clams, er claims?
- These fanciful ribbons seem to smile for the camera. But swim up close…""And you\ll wish you\d brought your wide-angle lens
- Home for these colorful clams is on a coral reef in the warm, shallow water of the central Pacific ocean.""You\ll find it smack dab in the middle of nowhere
