Interesting Knowledge Of Short Necked Clam
The Short necked clam lives in caves by digging sand mud camp with developed axe feet. At high tide, it rises to the beach surface and stretches out the water pipe to breathe, feed and excrete; After the dry tide or encountering external stimulation, the double shell is closed tightly, or depending on the expansion and contraction of the foot, it returns to the bottom of the cave, leaving two holes close to the beach surface, which are formed by the outlet and inlet pipes.
The burrow depth of the clam varies with its size, sediment composition and season. In the season of small size, soft sediment or high water temperature, cave dwelling is shallow; However, the larger the individuals, the harder the sediments or in the cold winter, the deeper the depth. But generally speaking, the cave depth is generally about 3-15 cm.
