If you notice him taking an attraction to it, cover the clam with something (like a strawberry basket thingy, or something along those lines) and find another home for it. This way, you can see whether or not it will nip. It might not nip right away, it may in time.. just be prepared to cover it up and make alternative arrangements for it.

Of course, all of this is my opinion!
Just as Scott mentioned, angels can definetly vary. My coral beauty angel never expressed any interest in even tasting any corals or clams. Its typically a matter of luck.
