I am sure all clams are different but my crocea has been very hardy in my nano. I have read they filter the water and actually prefer water that is a little higher in nutrients. My best advice would be to place it where it is secure. I have read that in nature they are found wedged in between rocks with only the mantle showing. Mine wasn't secure enough and its foot was damaged by my urchin. Now it is more secure and doing well, but only has a small portion of the foot left.
