We bought a little Maxima from CBA about 3 weeks ago. He opened up right away. What kind of lighting do you have? You may not have enough for him. CBA has theirs under MHs and that's what we have.
Ours sits on the sand about 24" from the lights. We've tried and tried to get him to attach to a piece of LR, but he keeps rebelling and throwing himself back on the sand (must be a toddler, or a teenager!). We finally gave up and let him stay there.
Also, we have learned that at this tender young age, clams need the Phyto every day. We have a 135g, so we dump one ounce of DTs Phytoplankton in the tank every other day, and target feed on the off days. We cut a plastic bottle about 3-4" from the top (enough to cover the clam). We place it over the clam, and squirt about 1ml of Phyto into the bottle neck with a syringe. We've done this for our Open Brain too, and they are both doing great!
HTH,
Cat
