Clam fading


What makes a clam slowly fade color? Calcuim is good, alk was high but is fixed, all other parameters are good.

It's gone from a deep purple to a light purple. The mantle does seem to be coming out more then before.

I did move it up in the rockwork like Whiskey said, but it's never attached tot he rock I moved it to.

Help please.

I don't know, could be too much light, not enough light, just ticked off about something, genitics, deisise,...

A picture might help, do you have one?

It does worry me that it never attached to the rock, my maximas always do that very quickly, like in a week if happy.

What kind of clam is this (I assume it's a Maxima or Crosea since I told you to put it on rocks).
