I have an established 120g reef with a large 20" derasa that will be moving to a new home 6 miles away. Looking for advice on how to best take the clam out of the tank, how to pack and move it, and how to acclimate it to a new system that I'm setting up in the new house. Any input appreciated. Thank you!

Honestly, the only thing that needs to be done any different than other livestock is to "burp" the clam by rotating it and turning all different directions and upside down to get the air out when you finally place it in the tank again.
