the clam should realy be in the sand. maybe even held up something on the sides for the time being. they tend to fall on their sides when you first introduce them to your tank. plus they liket o be in the sand.
otherwise love your additions.

I do agree that the clam could decide he doesn't like his spot after being introduced to a new tank but crocea clams do like to be on the rockwork.

My clams like being on the rock or at least attached to a peice of rock rather then laying in the sand.

The clam has already established its holdfast to the rock. I do have enough light to put him in the sand, but from the reading I have done, they don't mind being on rock work.

Actually, T. crocea (which is the clam pictured) is a rock boring clam which is naturally found on hard surfaces (IE:, Rocks), not the sand.
