Clams that are available for sales already pass the stage that requires direct feeding. They mostly require a lot of light. Your lighting should be good.
Your fish stock is ok with clams. Avoid adding angel fish (large or dwarf). They will nibble on clams (sooner or later).

Even though clams can be fresh water dipped and can stand prolonged periods out of water its best to play it safe and not stress them unnecessarily. Take your time acclimating. Set up a drip system if you can.
