I wouldn't bother feeding it, just a hassle to you. Your clam will thrive and be quite happy as long as the lighting is adequate. But it sounds like that's all in check.. so I'd just make sure your CA levels are good as clams use lots of it. Good luck,

Thanks all, but you never know with salt water. I have many LPS corals, and all are thriving, except my bubble coral... Sadly, it has been slowly wilting away for the past 8 months, and I can't seem to help it... Sigh... I just want to make sure my calm has the best care around, so to speak...

I have 6 clams in my tank - 3 crocea' and 3 squamosas. I don't feed them specifically feed them however I do feed my tanks Phytofeast, cyclopeeze and oyster eggs. I think the most important thing is to make sure they are getting enough light and calcium. If you notice your crocea's mantle starting to fade in colour it is usually a good indication that it is not getting enough light. They are the most light demanding of the clams so moving it further up in your rockwork is probably a good idea. I have my croceas about 15" under 400W MH. HTH
