pigmy-angel,
I would be very concern about the angels as they are known to nip at the mantles of clams
I know your orginal question was about lighting, That is a fairly deep tank to keep Tridacnid clam in with VHO's IMO & IME

I would also be woried about the angels in your tank, as far as the lighting you don't say what wattage the bulbs are, I personaly keep clams in my tank 24in high with 6-140watt VHO bulbs the clams are half way up the tank, and I am looking to upgrade the lighting to 400watt radiums very shortly, I know the clams will thank me for the new light.
