So I was poking around my tank and there were like 20 nano conch egg packet "bubbles" on my k nano! I know they are fairly easy to breed, so I was wondering how long they take to hatch and how many would survive.

with fish in the tank? Probably none. Nom Nom Nom

hmmmmm. hopefully some make it.

I think I was one of the first breeders that introduced those into the hobby actually, the irony is that I can't find them now! They come out of the egg casings with a full shell, as a result their survival rates are spectacular smile.gif

congrats on the little ones! If you ever end up with a bunch of little ones you can't keep fed sell them to me or in the livestock classifieds...get a couple of frags from that bunch I bet. got to love the snails without a planktonic stage....virgin nerites are that way too, very easy to breed.

I'll remember you if I every have some extras! they are great grazers, plus trading them for frags is always a good thing!
