I'll try to find a thread but clam need essentially three thing:
Good light and flow-MH or LED and in top 3rd of tank. Moderate to high flow, I have one one maxima in high flow, one in moderate flow and a derasa in low flow. All have been alive for 9 months or longer.
Water chemistry- Once they get accustomed to the water they start depleting Mg and Ca levels very quickly. Make sure these are 1300+,400+ and 7-11 depending on if your dousing carbon or not. Smaller clams usually require feeding./zooplankton
Predator-Be cautious of copperbands, predator snails, some triggers other predatory fish. Camel shrimp may attack clam but I'm not sure of that.
