I pur a tupper ware bowl upside down on the sandbed and put the clam on top of that. I read something that the pyramids wont come that far out of the sand bed.

When mine didn't close up very well, he died the next day.
Just saying so you can keep a close eye on him. Wouldn't want him to pollute the whole tank if that happens. I hope it does not. Die I mean.
