Pod Razorshell - WWC Archives

The Pod Razorshell (Ensis siliqua), lives in deep vertical rows and feeds mainly on plankton that it catches via filter feeding. They are abundant on sandy shores and a surefire way to expose them is to pour a little table salt (Sodium Chloride) down their burrows and they will pop up out of their burrows due to their dislike to it.
