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!
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.
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 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.
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 UA-cam. 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 =) ua-cam.com/video/mdxZgqxETOA/v-deo.html
Very Cool. Such a gorgeous pond your Dad has, what a peaceful place. Loved it.
Glad you enjoyed it
Clams.... everything I need in my tank and didn't even know it till now 😊
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.
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.
What a beautiful pond!
Great video. It gave me lots of ideas. Be very careful when bringing "wild things" into your aquarium. Monsters lurk. . .
Love the newts and freshwater clams!!! And such a beautiful pond!
That water looks like it will work. Good luck

Learn something everyday! Can’t wait to see how they turn out in the tank :)

Clams are good!
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
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
Nice pond!
Love your stuff.
That's a cool find! How big do the clams get?
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 =)
Mmmm clams
How cool!!
You can never tell Bob to clam up 😂
I find mussels in our local lakes but not clams, they would be cool to try.
They prefer really dirty water. They are a really good filter
Nice pond! You should include it in more videos :-)
That is so cool!
Interesting. Didnt know you could have clams in an aquarium.
Count me in!
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.
Help me out.... Is that octopus grass??
I've wanted milfoil weed in my tank awhile though💙. That pond is dreamy!!!!! I love this video!!!!
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

Awesome vid
I'm gonna have to go drag my dad's pond now and see if I can't fin some clams!
I would love some for my 700 gal pond
If I find freshwater clams in a stream can I put them right in their own tank?
Fresh Clam...Emm. LOL
The only kind i like.
If your clams get big enough can they be eating ?
How did you even get that tank that green?
👏👏👏
I thought about putting clams in a overhead sump

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.
What happens when they clean the green water?
Thats not a pond bob that was a Lake lol Locally harvested food for little steen 💪
Them little clams aren't even appetizers lol
Is there a clam update video?
Never saw them again.
@@SteenfottAquatics lol makes sense, it would be a short video
what are the food you feed them?
jam that clam
Are these claims easy to breed?
Hello bob!
greatest bestest mostest video i ever watched! lmao
Gift card is mine! 🤣
Can anyone please let me know if there are any non parasitic freshwater clams/mussels that can live in ponds with fish
