Does anybody know what this white tube is coming out of my squammie? Is it a foot?

Not the siphon... it was coming out of its mouth after I added phyto... now it is gone.
 
Sorry for the bad pic but it is the tiny clam in the back.
 
Doing it again after some phyto... definitely a tongue coming out of the incurrent siphon (mouth).

I have not seen anything like this before. It does seem like it is the foot that protruding out in front rather than the basal opening in the back
