I don't know, It makes sence that it could be coloring up but it almost looks like a different texture than the rest of the clam? How do clams work as far as symbiotic algea, does anyone know (excuse me if this is a stupid question) but can clams bleach out?

It looks to me like somethings picking at it. I had a small one once that my cleaner shrimp AND peppermint shrimp started nibbling on.
