No, ordinary clams can't eat anything that large. Clams take food and water through a siphon and feed on tiny plankton or nutrients made by algae that grows on its mantle. Giant clams, the largest living bivalves, may supplement their diet with tiny bits of dead fish if any is available, but the pieces have to be small enough to fit through the siphon.

How do you feed a clam?

I actually think you should put the clam back into the sea you got it or in a random sea where it can feed itself. Cheeseman56: Actually, you HAVE to put the clam back into the ocean it came from, not a random water source. This is because the clam could effect the food chain of the ocean/lake, and cause other creatures to die.
