Whelk doesn't equate a clam eater! They are predatory but their diets vary, which means they may go for a clam, but not necessarily! For example, I have a whelk Bursa granularis, but to my best knowledge, it doesn't eat clams. It eats worms.
Pyramid snails are hard to ID for a casual aquarist. Further more, they tend to be specific predators. If it's eating an Astraea, chances are it's not gonna go for a clam.

Well if the clam ones and the Astrea ones are different, they would be a real bear to ID because they look identical.
I have been looking over all my Astreas for the past couple days and dang if they aren't all clean (well that's a good dang
)
