My clam seems to move at night...is that something in the tank moving him around, or him? Also, he has a little slim like tissue on the bottom of him, is that part of his body?

thats him moving around and those are his byssal threads that let him attach to rocks. what type of clam is this?

if you have strong enough lighting you can place him on the sand and beneath him place a small rock under the sand so it attaches. if you dont have strong enough lighting then youre going to have to think about placing him high in the tank. these guys love light and lots of it. my crocea sits on the highest rock facing the light and has never moved
