“Fighting” doesn’t refer to its temperament, but rather competitive breeding behavior observed among males who will push rival males away from females. The conchs are not hurt during these matches, it is more like a spirited game of musical chairs.

They reach a size of 4-5 inches long, and 3 inches high and can eat a large amount of algae. Because of their size we do not recommend them unless you have a tank 50 gallons or larger. However, you should know they live entirely in the sand. If your substrate is covered with rock you should consider if the conch will have room to move throughout the tank. They are an excellent cleaner, and substrate stirrer.

Reef safe, peaceful, and easy to care for.
