They never move, except to close and open and live on light and nutrients in your tank. Live for decades.

Really cool!

Any chance of getting pearls out of them? As I understand it, pearls are the result of an irritant inside the clam's shell.

Oh, and don't they have a foot? Do they move at all?

For some reason I have the urge to melt some butter...

They're really beautiful. For some reason I was thinking they would be inside a "shell", lol.
