what's this blue stuff?

I've noticed this fuzzy blue stuff on the shell of my Crocea clam. He doesn't seem the worse for wear, but... what is it?

Re: what's this blue stuff?

Man, I was hoping that's what it was. I told Gail (as if I knew what I was talking about) aww, it's just blue sponge.... then secretly asked here

Thanks Matt!
