To acclimate, put in a bowl of tank water and just keep toppping it up every now and then to keep warm..when they break open, they are ready to go in the tank...
Thats about all there is too them really...

thats true....when they crack open, and spill out the crap, then, your good to go, as they will not open untill they are happy with the water...

If they dont open, i usually class them as dead...and yes, a bowl of water is just fine for acclimating clams such as these....
