Corbicula fluminea — Golden Clam

The Golden Clam (Corbicula fluminea) is a small, smooth-shelled bivalve with a yellowish to golden exterior that acts as a biological water filter. It actively pumps water through its body to extract phytoplankton and fine organic particles. Widely distributed across Asian rivers, it needs fine sand substrate to burrow and thrives with steady water flow.
