There are two types.  Flame Scallop and Electric Flame Scallop.

I agree, you probably don't have the "electric" type. These are actually file clams that have been wrongly named. You will have to feed this often with something like DT's for them to survive, even then they didn't seem to last long in my tanks.

That's pretty wicked! I picked up a regular one from quantum reefs. Not quite as cool.
