Giant clams are an intermediate. They basically feed on phytoplankton (tiny microscopic plants). But they also house a type of algae in their mantle that produces sugar for them. That makes them somewhat in between consumer and producer...

There have been no records of that. The muscles which the clams use to close their shell moves too slowly to catch a human, the clams would rather withdraw into their shells than attack human and their diet consist of zooplankton and phytoplankton

Clams do not eat any kind of food. They filter feed, which means they filter nutrients in from the water.
