Asian Clam or Corbicula Fluminea is native clam species also known as ‘etak’ in Malaysia. It has been used as a food source by the local people especially at the Eastern region part of Malaysia. The aim of the study is to observe, determine and record the growth and survival rates of farmed Asian clams, Corbicula fluminea, in a semi closed system. Since this study is about the growth and survival rate of farmed Asian Clam, Corbicula fluminea, so the purpose of this study is to reveal the potential of the growth and survival rate of the farmed Asian clams. Generally, Asian Clam is a notable snack in Malaysian especially in the Eastern region of Malaysia, such as in Kelantan, Terengganu, Perak and Pahang. Therefore, Asian clam will be used for more investigation in this study due to its high intake and consumption among the Eastern region people of Malaysia. Data and information are recorded and analysed with tables and graphs. The average percentage of shell length for all replicates is 0.10 ± 0.17.
