Question Bumblebee Shrimp Eats Clams?

Good morning! I just recently added 2 bumblebee shrimp to a 10 gallon nano tank, and had successfully fed them frozen brine shrimp via dropper. I added a 1 1/2" Derasa clam into the tank 2 days ago and has been acclimating nicely. This morning I woke up to turn the lights on and one of the bumblebee shrimp had pushed the clam over in the sand to expose the foot and was halfway inside the shell! I am not sure if the bumblebee was trying to eat the foot, however I separated the two and moved the clam to the far side of the tank temporarily. It has since opened up fully, however I am concerned it may be attacked again, and if I need to relocate it into my 29 gallon setup. Any advice is welcomed!!
