I have been reading for quite a while about clams and today I found a healthy bunch at a LFS for a great price. I can't help it. I got a 5" crocea for only $30, considering going back and getting another since they had 6 of them. It is very responsive, it was fully open at the store and close as soon as someone reached over the tank.
Now I have it in my tank and I was wondering how long I should wait to feed it for the first time and how long will it take for it to completely open. It is opening half way but keeps closing as soon as a fish swims by. Also do I have to worry about my Coral Bueaty Angel missing with my clam since I know they are known to mess with corals(never seen mine touch a coral). One thing I am worried about is this brittle star that disappeared in my tank a few weeks ago and I have searched the tank for it but I have come up with nothing so far. I have been moving rocks trying to find it but haven't as of yet. Are there any other fish I will need to worry about. I haven't read that I need to worry about any of the fish I have.
Thanks
