clam is bad

[Ehudd]

i just bought a clam it is very small and it is gapping so badly
nearly half way down the body. nothing i can do?

what type of clam? what are your water parameters? what is your lighting like? How old is your tank? Give us some of the basics so we can help you out...

halfway down the body means its probably dead.
was it a baby clam?
