Mollusks and clams

Post by kwbragg »

I brought home a couple mollusks and a couple of clams from my local fish mart, my GSP's are pretty small and these would last me awhile, however I don't know how or if I can keep them. Can you freeze them or do you have to cook them and then freeze them? They were on ice at the fish mart.

You can absolutely freeze them. When defrosting them, make sure to do it in water from the tank, and get them completely defrosted before giving them to your puffers.
