I think you're fine too.

Should not be a problem. Whatever clam you decide on, find out if it likes to be high, mid level or low in the tank.

Why do you have it so far from the surface?

that is the way it worked out when I installed them plus it keeps the splashing to a min. it still gets splashed a little even now

Would 4 hours of Metal Halide, 250W X 2 on a 90 Gallon, be engough time each day to keep the clam happy?
