Clams from a creek typically require freshwater or low-salinity water to thrive, as they are adapted to live in those environments. It’s essential to provide them with clean, well-oxygenated water that mimics their natural habitat, including appropriate temperatures and pH levels. If you're keeping them in a controlled environment, ensure the water is free of pollutants and contaminants. Regular monitoring and maintenance of water quality are crucial for their health and survival.

I believe distilled water will work as well.
