Hi! Just looking for some insight if my clam has PMD

I got the clam a few months ago and it was already settled in the tank. Fully extended and everything.

After feeding the tank i just notice that something is off.I know lighting is bad so ill take another image tomorrow if needed.

Thanks!

I'm not seeing an issue with the mantle. What fish and inverts do you have in there? For it to be PMD, the mantle will have a "crinkle" like appearance and will retract in that area, slowly retracting more and more. Often times they'll pull in or tuck in their mantles for various reasons, but usually goes back to "normal".
