User's notes
Was only at the site for a few minutes to collect water samples, so probably many more than what I saw. A week prior, I saw something similar, but smaller in Cooma Creek near bunyan. Worried about Golden clam or similar alien species.

This is not the invasive Golden Clam I think it may be the closely related Australian species Corbicula australis @Michael123 can you please confirm this.
