I was looking at getting theses guys for my 24gal
Is 3.99 a good price?
What are he benefits of the clams?

The site says that they help clean water and lower nitrates

Is that true?

I was also wondering if i could add them to a 10gal with a crayfish

They go under the substrate, so you don't see them very often. Plus they die really easily and that can nuke everything in the tank because usually they die while they are under the substrate so you don't know they died.

All in all they aren't the best things.

If you want clams it is best to keep them in a cup that is burried in the substrate. Then you will always know where they are. You will be able to check on them regularly and remove them quickly when they die.
