Can corals sting or hurt clams???

Earlier this week I received a beautiful crocea clam, it is about 3.5". I know that this clam needs high light, and I am trying to decide on the idea place for it in my tank. My lighting consists of 2 250 10k MH and 440 actinic VHO.

My question is this:
What corals are safe to come in contact with a clam, and what corals can hurt a clam by touching them?
A specific list would be great, as I have many SPS, LPS, anemones, and softies in the tank.

The place I would really like to put the crocea (high light / low flow) is very close to 2 rbta's and a torch. An alternative location is near several acro colonies. A second alternative is near hundreds of zoanthids and a toadstool.

Thanks for any insight you may have!
 
i keep my clams in between my SPS corals with no problem and i have an anemone that touches one of my clam's mantle with no ill effect.
