i got a fighting conch yesterday. after drip acclimating it for several hours, i placed it into my tank. this morning, it was still in the same spot. fearing it was dead, i flipped it over with a dowel stick. it wasn't dead and flipped itself over. are these guys active and roams around? mine is still at the same spot.

Mine just hangs out in the day time mostly. You can see him eating every now and then. He's stayed put for 2 or 3 days at a time too. Come to think about it, I have 2 in my tank and I haven't seen the little one for a week or so. A lot of time they burrow in the sand for days or months at a time.

 

anyways, as long as he oved I wouldn't worry about it too much.

When I first got mine they didnt move for a few days, but after a week or so they were moving around at lightning speed. You've never lived until you have seen your conch do flips to get across the tank.
