Re: Asian Clams, Corbicula fluminea, blooms of bright green algae
i see them around as well, but i have to ask where you read that they cause algae blooms? clams and other filter feeders remove more organics from the water column than they expel in waste and so therefore actually prevent algae blooms.
example is the great lakes, which currently are about the clearest they have been on record, thanks to zebra mussels filtering everything out.
