Lighting Color for Clams?

[Wookiee]

My Knop book is en route but will not arrive until September. Can someone please elaborate on what color temp is optimal for clams?

I have 3 250W DE HQI 10K Ushios (with Magnetic Ballast) with 4 x 39W T5 Actinics over a 150 gallon (28" deep). I am considering changing to 14k DE Hamiltons when I next swap bulbs, but I don't know if that color temp would be ideal for any clams.

I don't have a clam yet, but I want to plan for a healthy animal.

Is the color temp important of just the par? Any suggestions?
