your clam is a crocea and some people do put it on the sand, what kinda of lights are you running ? From what I know croceas are supposed to be on rocks right under MH bulb. That's where mine are and they look great.
Thanks for all the comments

When they get it in the first day. That's what I do, After a few days they get sick and are very unhealthy. Once they get them in the first day which is on thrusday. They are all pretty healthy and you can get one. The clams are 2 coral card, It's really worth it. You can also try Tropical Reef on taraval and 28th. Very good deals.

I went ahead and put my clam on rock under lights, have T5 set up, and he seems very happy. I have brown algae on sand and i keep stiring it up but comes back, what is it and why are my cleaner crews missing it? Kinda like my maid, never gets all the dirt.

you have t5 lighting ? I don't think that's good enough for a clam .. They would like to be under metal halides.
