Fighting Conch

Scientific Name: Strombus sp
Reef Compatibility: Yes

Minimum Tank Size: 30 gal

Max Size: 4 inches

Approximate Purchase Size: 2 to 4 inches

Food/Feeding: Detritus, Omnivore

Notes: The beneficial Fighting Conch is not as aggressive as its name implies. Though a male Fighting Conch can be territorial towards other males of its own kind, the Fighting Conch is peaceful towards other tankmates. The Fighting Conch is a suitable addition to any home reef aquarium, where it will use its excellent sand sifting abilities to clean and aerate the substrate. Praised for their hardiness, the Fighting Conch requires open, deep sand beds in which it can forage for food. Though multiple Fighting Conches should be housed in larger systems, single specimens are suited for any size reef aquarium. Keep in mind that the Fighting Conch has a voracious appetite; as such, supplemental feeding is required in smaller systems and recommended in even the largest aquarium setups. Classified as an omnivore, the Fighting Conch will consume detritus from your aquarium substrate.

This item is held in an invertebrate only system.

Healthy & Big size

Ordered two fighting conchs. Both arrived healthy, packaged great, and pretty good size too. One is about 3 in, the other about 2 in. They mostly stay hidden in the sand, more than the tiger sand conch, but they still do a good job aerating it. Great addition to my tank. Very pleased with purchase. Thanks SBR!

Just Wow!

Wasn't sure what to expect when I ordered this conch, but I was pleasantly surprised when it arrived. It was professionally packaged, which was no surprise since Salty Bottom Reef Company always packages their shipments wonderfully. It was somewhat active upon arrival, but really got moving once it was fully acclimated to my aquarium. A beautiful addition to my tank. Pleased with my purchase. Thanks!
