MedRed Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 holy cow! What's your sand bed looking like? Link to comment
Rehype Posted December 25, 2010 Author Share Posted December 25, 2010 Lol dude honestly I think my sand bed will be good to go in a few more days. That thing is a freaking machine. I had to do bit of rescaping to accommodate his huge size but im really happy at how he keeps the sandbed stirred up. Even if he's not eating hes always bulldozing sand around. Link to comment
MedRed Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 will you keep him in definitely? Link to comment
Rehype Posted December 25, 2010 Author Share Posted December 25, 2010 I'm actually considering it...i figure I can just supplement his diet with dried nori or some other macroalgae. Link to comment
thewire Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Next to the small rock up front Next to a normal size conch there is a bubble algae on that small rock Link to comment
Rehype Posted December 25, 2010 Author Share Posted December 25, 2010 Lol yea I have a few stragglers left over.I'm curious to how big it will get...it gives the rock a bit of character. Link to comment

jgpico Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Are there pico sized conchs? I want one of these beasts! As always still lookin good. Cant wait til he has the sandbed sparkling so we can see a fts! Link to comment
Rehype Posted December 25, 2010 Author Share Posted December 25, 2010 Thanks jg. There's normal size ones as well I have three of them. Live Aquaria sells the nano sized ones. Im sure 1 or 2 would work in your pico. I can't wait till the sandbed is taken care of so I can really start stocking. Link to comment

Rehype Posted December 26, 2010 Author Share Posted December 26, 2010 Thanks so much for the feedback td. The tank is 24x24x9 and is roughly 22.5 gallons. It's only been running for about a month. I added some coral from my previous tank and recently added a bit to scaping. I got a few other things I plan to add in the near future. Link to comment

MedRed Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 I don't know why there weren't more popular say a year ago. I was wary on getting one strictly because not a lot of others had them or were singing their praises. Link to comment
Rehype Posted December 28, 2010 Author Share Posted December 28, 2010 I agree with ya I had heard of them but no one ever confirmed if they did a good job. Mine feed almost nonstop... Link to comment
