Take a deep dive with us into the wonderful world of this gargantuan bivalve. We discuss basic physiology of the giant clam, as well as their massive effect on their coral reef ecosystems. We also take a look at threats being faced by giant clams around the world, and how you can help protect these underwater giants!
