Abstract: This study aimed to determine whether the Asian clam (Corbicula fluminea Müller, 1774) can be used as a biomechanical filter in ornamental fish aquariums. Various densities of this freshwater mussel were maintained with goldfish (Carassius auratus L., 1758), and their filtration efficiency, tolerance to environmental stressors, and viability were examined over 75 days along with the growth of both the mussels and fish. The addition of mussels removed large amounts of total suspended solids from the water, impr… Show more

“…One of the most important contributions is the increase of strength, observed mostly at post-peak conditions. Such effects have been evaluated in several studies, either with natural [1], [2] or synthetic fibres [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. The use of natural fibres is commonly questioned because of their durability, and physical and mechanical heterogeneity [14].…”
