Meet Monroe: The First Clam Influencer

Monroe the Clam is one mellow mollusk you have to follow on Instagram. As the first clamfluencer, he’s been charming 30k followers (and counting) with his laid-back lifestyle.

Unlike his clammy cousins, Monroe isn’t into burrowing — He prefers to lounge on his lawn chair (which happens to help him show off his cute hat)

Monroe took over after the passing of Maurice the clam in January. Like Monroe, Maurice loved a laidback lifestyle, which included regular camping trips.

Maurice used to love telling stories to the clam children.

With Monroe carrying Maurice’s torch, he’s now looked up to by the younger generation.

Monroe’s social circle extends to other mollusks, crustaceans, and fishes.

A local celebrity crustacean in Monroe’s tank is LePrawn James.
