Beautiful clam!

I would worry about it. It is pretty common for some sand to get in it from time to time. Your clam can expel unwanted small debris that might get into it.

HOW IMPORTANT ARE FISH TO MAKING A REEF TANK FEEL COMPLETE?

  • Essential! A reef needs fish movement and personality

    Votes: 28 65.1%

  • Very important, but one or two fish may be enough

    Votes: 5 11.6%

  • Optional... a coral-only reef can feel completely finished

    Votes: 2 4.7%

  • I actually prefer a coral-and-invertebrate-only system

    Votes: 0 0.0%

  • It depends on the tank’s size, style, or purpose

    Votes: 6 14.0%

  • I’ve kept a fishless reef (details in the comments)

  • Well...it's complicated... (answer in the comments)
