Put it in the sand as far away from the LTA as possible. I believe derasa's are sand clams.

derasas are sand dwellers, but need less light than other clams. a fts would help. i certainly would not put it close to a lta. you should be ok anywhere on the bottom. and derasas move constantly anyway, so it'll settle where it feels comfortable, usually near the glass, for some odd clam reason. i move mine once a month or so.
