    I am trying to get it to open up. :p
    That is about the best my camera will do. I have a new one on the way but won't get it until next week.;D
    I sort of figured it wasn't a tridacnid. I was wondering type of bivalve it is.

    Here are a couple more showing a foot or feeding tube.:confused:
    The green is a piece of algae.

    Thanks

    Even if we can't figure it out it is cool. I think I might have 2 more that are little larger than this one hiding in a zoa colony.:)
