| They are nucleated freshwaters. Between a blob and a fireball. You can plainly see the nucleus. The nucleus is from the Big Clam(Tridacna gigas). Must be. If it is, then you should not buy these. This clam is endangered. Usage is very improper at this time even though China did not sign a CITES agreement on this. Again, it's very improper to buy this!! "The giant clam is the world’s largest bivalve mollusk. It can weigh as much as 500 pounds, and has a porcelaneous interior. While its size and shell color are ideal for nucleus production, the giant clam is a threatened species. Importing the giant clam or its derivatives is illegal in the US and other countries that are signatories to CITES, an international treaty intended to protect endangered and threatened species. China is not a signatory."
