Clownfish pestering clam

[Davy Jones]

Ive had a clam for about 7 months now, has been doing very well!

However as of about 2 days ago he seems to be closed up more often than not, and it appears one of my clownfish has started pestering him. Not really nipping but he keeps "nosing" the mantle for lack of a better explanation.

How do i stop this?? Do i have to get rid of the clownfish? Can i Rehome him to the sump or something for a few days and reintroduce him in the display?

I ended up moving my clam away from where my clownfish typcially hang out. Hopefully this will keep the clam off the male clown's radar.

Bad news. It appears the clown has started nipping at the clam. Even after the move. I just shut the lights off in hopes that i can get them to go to sleep and try to catch him.
