I am not certain what "cleaner" clams are...but am sure they are not the clams found in a supermarket. They are almost all the cold water variety, and would take a deep sand bed to keep alive.

I have some clams, actually look like small mussels that came on live rock and they are doing fine.

Lots of other ways to spend $ more efficiently to "clean."
