Clams are filter feeders. They do not eat seaweed. They eat plankton. They will ingest algae that is floating in the water as plankton but you would not call those planktonic algae "seaweed".
No. The beluga is a slow swimmer that feeds mainly on fish. It also eats cephalopods (squid and octopus) and crustaceans (crab and shrimp). Foraging on the seabed typically takes place at depths of up to 1,000 feet (300 m) but they can dive at least twice this depth. A typical feeding dive lasts 3-5 minutes, but belugas submerge for up to 20 minutes at a time
