Help on my clam

My clam is in my office tank and last Friday, I forgot to on the pumps back after feeding. Come Monday, the cleaner shrimp and tube worm were dead. And my clam opened its mouth very big. Today, it is closed. Is it dying?

Other than those two dead and clam acting funny, the other corals and livestock look fine today.

My 1.5ft Nano tank

Equipment: Sump with chaeto, hydor nano wavemakers, Maxspect 60W LED, return pump Rio 12HF

Livestock: 2xMaroon Clown, Yellow Watchman Goby, Algae Blenny, six-line wrasse, Fire & Skunk Shrimp, turbo snails, hermit crabs.

Corals: Zoas, Rics, Hammer, Blue & Green Starpolyps.

IF YOUR CLAM OPEN ITS MOUTH BIG BIG HOW ABOUT ITS FLESH ALL INSIDE OR SHOWING OUTSIDE OVER THE SHELL?

Haiz...it's confirmed dead. I touch it and it doesn't close tightly at all. In fact, it doesn't move. And I can look through it.

When I found it open mouth big big yesterday, I already changed 20% water and MOST IMPORTANTLY, on back the pump. But I think it is too late...luckily the rest of the corals look normal today.
