A clearer picture would be helpful. Your bivalve will most likely require feeding for survival, something like DT's phytoplankton.

Picture is still blurry. When taking pictures in the tank the lens should be right against , and square to the glass. Use the macro mode if your camera has one, use a tripod, use the delayed picture mode so your hands are away from the camera, and set the camera on low film speed ex. ISO 80.

My guess is its a thorny oyster.
