do clams have feelings too?

No, clams do not have feelings.  Their anatomy is on of the simplest.  Mollusks typically filter feed in a sessile environment.  They do not have faces or anything similar to that.  Inside the shell is just a mussel.  There are specific parts, such as a visceral mass.  But nothing too complex.

Clams taste great after a gentle frying in butter, and a squeeze of lemon!

Yes they do. The shrimp you buy usually have their heads removed.

Hmm, good question. I believe they have feelings, but not a soul. I think it's because the Bible doesn't say that they have one otherwise. i think they were created to remind us of God's unconditional love for us.

Jelly fish don't have brains either yet they are capable of actions that to a human observer seem to be caused by thinking. Likewise cells act and do not have a brain. The DNA inside it contains instructions for what to do. Also insects only have a ganglia, no real brain, which just handles motor skills only, not thought. So how do they do it? In actuality they are not thinking and then doing, just doing based on instinct. An observer may notice a small pause in the actions of say a jellyfish that to a human supposes thinking about what to do. Not so. The external stimuli isn't correct yet for the action to be taken is all, and when it is correct, it acts. Clams also have no brains. Nor a Venus fly-trap yet when a fly lands there it closes the trap. It's simply cause and effect.

I'm partial to crabs. They are misunderstood. Each one has their own personality and temperament. Some even do tricks. It's a shame we execute them so quickly upon discovery.

They do, but some animals have a higher tolerance than humans.  Think about it, how would you feel after you eat a rotten carcass or plants off the ground.

Obviously something else is bothering your snail. Do you spend time with it, talk to it or tell it that you love it? If you don't, then this may be the problem. If a snail feels neglected emotionally it will go searching for love elsewhere.

Crabs have innervated sensilla or setae that cover their body and appendages; some of these are mechanoreceptors that can sense touch and currents, including vibrations (sound waves). \nAt least for shrimps, their statocyst (equilibrium organ) has been demonstrated to be also a hearing organ (see the scientific paper at the link).\nThe sea is filled with sound, as sound vibrations travel exceptionally well in the aquatic medium. In addition, several crustaceans produce sounds themselves. Therefore it's only logical that they have evolved sound receptors of different types.

Crystalline water is, on the whole, known as ice...  or snow, in some contexts, or frost.\n\nIn the sense that we humans have feelings, there is really no evidence that water crystals have feelings.\n\nit seems to me that we humans have a common propensity to attribute feelings to things that are around us--and in doing that, it is probable that we are projecting ourselves into those objects--especially simple things, like water crystals.

I've only found one reference to this behavior, and the original publication is in Russian. Orcas are social mammals and it would take extremely stressful circumstances for cannibalism to occur.

You have fish in inverted commas, does that mean you are unsure?  Did it have eyes, a mouth, gills?  Was it a vertebrate? The first thing I thought of was a sea slug or flatworm.  A sea slug seems more likely in a Carribean coral reef.

See?!  This is proof that the Panda is illogical!  Science be praised!  Let there be much opening of clams on my tummy!  Bring my clam-rock so I may smash the clams open!
