First time clam owner here. I've had my T. Crocea for almost 3yrs. 11" under my 4x 24w T5HO's Have it sitting on a half clam shell. Have never had any issues with it at all. Was 3" when I bought it and today it's about 6"

what is good lighting for clams? i know my lighting is not the best but it all i got i have a 48 inch 6 bulb t5 ho. will that be enough light to raise a clam and be healthy?

I do 5 1/2g wc every 10-14 days. I hated daily dosing so I switched to Kalkwasser in my 5g ATO. Love it! No other dosing at all. Keep your Ca/Alk stable.
Of course placement of your clam depends on your lights. The stronger the lighting the lower you can keep your clam. With T5HO I suggest like mine, mid level or higher.
