Shazam Farms offers premium live grafted pearl farming clams, ideal for those who want to skip the grafting process and directly begin pearl cultivation. Each clam is pre-grafted with a high-quality nucleus by trained technicians and is ready for pearl formation.
These clams are selected for health, shell condition, and pearl-producing potential. They are suitable for growing pearls in freshwater ponds, tanks, or other aquaculture systems. Grafted clams save time, reduce early-stage mortality, and are ideal for commercial pearl farmers aiming for faster results.

FAQs
Q: What is inside a grafted clam?
A nucleus (usually a round bead) and a piece of mantle tissue are inserted to stimulate pearl formation inside the clam.
Q: How long until the pearl is ready to harvest?
Typically, 8–12 months depending on care, water quality, and climate.
Q: Can I mix grafted and ungrafted clams in the same tank?
Yes, but care must be taken to ensure equal feeding and space for both.
