Where do you buy clams to feed your fish?

Where do you guys get the clams to feed your fish? Do you pick those up at the grocery store? Or do you buy special ones marketed for feeding your tank?

I get them from the grocery store. Human grade is usually cheaper than pet grade in my area. They usually have a raw frozen seafood mix in the freezer section (walmart, aldi, etc.). Also I go to a seafood market to get packages of raw little neck clams.

Also interested for future reference.

Also, do people feed minced clam/oysters that have been frozen or drop in a half shell clam (fresh or thawed)?

I get clams and mussel meat or pipis right from the fish market. I blend them up and add liquid vitamin and freeze in cubes. Fish love it. I feed pipis to my anemones too.

I drive to a coastal town (about an hour away) and patronize a seafood market.

A seafood market or I collect them in the sea. (I usually eat most of them before the fish see any) :p
