Clam sticking out it's tongue???

[Delphinus]

Anyone seen anything like this ...

My T. max is sticking something, might be part of its byssal gland, out of its inhalant siphon. It literally looks like a little white tongue sticking out. It sticks it out, pulls it back in ... sticks it out again, pulls it back in again.

This has been going on for about a week.

Anyone got any ideas? Anything whatsoever? I've posted on the RC clam forum but so far nobody has responded over there.

:confused:
