Bought this clam about a month ago. It seems to have developed a small pinch in the mantle, but not like in the picture I have seen. It has been this way for at least 20 days but has not gotten worse. Any help would be appreciated.

Doesn't really look like pinched mantle IMO. Is it possible that it might have gotten stung by something or that something is irritating it on the shell.
