Blenny and clams help

[Jeepman3sk]

Are bicolor blenny known for go after clams? I just got both a new clam and a new blenny and i have seen him go after my clam once or twice. Is this usual? If yes I'm going to get rid of the blenny.

i have a bicolor blenny and a crocea and the blenny doesnt touch it at all. is it actually chowing down on the mantle?

It pecked at it a few times then I fed the tank and he/she stopped. So I'm not sure but I'm going to watch closely b/c i don't want to lose $100 in clam.

Yes bicolored blennies do much and nip clam mantles IMO, I had a bicolor that nipped at the mantles of two of my clams (stressed them out to death) before I caught him.
