Title:
Giant Scaly Clam
The mantle (soft animal tissue) within the clams shell is brightly coloured brown, green and/or blue. This is caused by microscopic algae known as zooxanthellae living inside the mantle which photosynthesise (make food) from sunlight and also the waste metabolic products of the clam itself.
