IMO the opinions are hardly mixed
i dont think you were blasted, people were just trying to help you out. BTW 4 months
the problem with clams and lower lighting is that they dont let on much that they are struggling. sometimes they will slowly bleach, sometimes brown, or hyper-extend. these things happen very slowly and if you look at them every day you dont notice the change, and to you they look fine. it can take a year or more for a clam to slowly starve to death from improper lighting.
