Freshwater clams are primarily filter feeders, meaning they primarily consume tiny particles like plankton, algae, and detritus suspended in the water. While they may not fit the traditional definition of omnivores, which eat both plant and animal matter, their diet can include a mix of organic materials. Therefore, they can be considered to have omnivorous tendencies in their feeding habits.
