I just got my first clam 6/22 Sunday. It is a blue maxima about 3"-4". I drip acclimated for 2.5-3hrs before placing it on the sand in my tank. In the lfs it looked great (although I may have not seen it clearly) but when I placed it in my tank I noticed some thin almost transparent spots on the mantle. Is this normal? Will it grow and fill in?
Here is a pic - the thin spots are near the right part of the mantle. Almost looks white in the pic.
Other than that it is still in the same spot (read they move if not happy) and reacts to shadows.
TIA
