It looks like your clam needs to be higher up and closer to the lights. You said it's a dual T5HO fixture? What bulbs are you running? If it's one daylight and one actinic, you need to pull the actinic out and get a bulb with better PAR rating. If you want to replace with a bluer bulb, I'd suggest either a UVL Super Actinic, or an Aquascience 22K bulb (or similar). Up a few posts back the clam was about the middle of the tank with its mantle open but was looking a little brown. I'm thinking that your lights are powerful enough pending that the clam is higher still in the tank.

Hi Mikey,
Thanks for your concern and your advice I would have followed, if I still had the T5's. I actual switched out the T5HO for 14k 150 watt MH with dual T8 (Fiji Purple) I moved the clam back down, because with the MH it was closed all the time, since moving it, it stays open all the time now. I will post new pictures tomorrow afternoon, since it is about time for and update. -Jeff
