What a great sand stirrer- and so cool to watch.
This animal is NOT recommended for tanks smaller than 55 gallons
Can be hard to get at times, so get 'em while you can!!

I was greatly surprized how big the snail was, its has done a great job of stirring up the sand. Be aware of the size of it, make sure it has enough space to move around the tank, because it has a tendancy to push through tight spots. |

Have purchased twice from Reefs2go since I got my tank and they REALLY take care of you. This snail is a must, fun to watch. |

Cool guy and not creepy |
|
I was reluctant to order a conch snail because I thought they were creepy in the wild. But this guy is actually cute and is pretty docile. He just scoots around looking for junk. |

Fighting Conch. Just WOW! |
|
I urge you to order this little guy. He is the BEST sand cleaner out there. He is harmless, doesn't grow over 3 inches, and cannot leave the sand. He will make your sandbed VERY clean. Best addition to my tank ever. |
