I question fresh dipping a clam
what would be the benefit?
it is a invertebrate and typically don't mix well with freshwater
have you done this before?
on another note, I don't think the clam will make it regardless of what you do.

What's in the tank with it?
Any new additions?
Water parameters?
How long have you had it?

The picture in my signature is of this tank. This tank is new to us, we bought it from a guy here in our town. It's been in our house for almost a month. New things that have been added in the last week are: RTBA (extra small, other side of tank) and a Kenya Tree. We just did a 30% water change 4 days ago.

Temp: 80.5F
PH 7.96
Salinty 1.026
