Respectfully, I would disagree. Not through any experience of my own, but simply because I read something different.
I found this to be a really cool article on clams.

But in relation to the light demands of species of clams, the article states "Croceas live at shallower depths than other Tridacna species, where they receive intense light; so they require more light than the other species when kept in aquaria."
