Alright ya'll I got a gold maxima clam for two weeks now and I've noticed something up with the shell. The underside of it looks like it's starting to curl. It was on its side for a couple of days before I put it back up but i can't remember which side was facing down. My pics aren't the best because of dirty glass. Please help

Also a real time line of the clam will help establish what did happen.
As it’s unusual.
 
It is very possible that it came in like this but I just noticed it yesterday
 
Looks like growth to me. As long as the mantle extends normally, is light reactive I wouldn’t worry about it. As for speed of growth imo it is possible. My T. Maxima has tripled its size in just 2yrs.
