  Since zebra mussels became established in Lake Erie, 
  water clarity has increased from 6 inches to 30 feet 
  in some areas. … One drastic impact of the zebra mussel
  invasion is the near extinction of native American 
  unionid clams in Lake St. Clair and in the western 
  basin of Lake Erie.
