Im going to place another Ubuild it order soon and want to get some fighting conchs. But, it says they can starve easily and I dont want that now do I? So, my question is: Would 3 be okay for a 6 foot tank? :cool: I figure two feet of space, with LR covering parts of it is enough room for them to munch significantly.:cool:

yeah, well for some reason, I can't exactly go party w/ friends as easily as I could before. It's called being at school 10 hours a day. Too much work.... Brain goes sizzle sizzle...... Grades this sem should be pretty good though.whew.. I'm turning 24 in 2 weeks, and feel like i'm turning 44... I don't know. :mad:

fighting conchs only get to be up to 3 inches
and are naemd so, because f the way they defend
.
their foot is a spur and leg strong. THye can flip opponents off of them. or HOP across the sand with it.
as for how many, ONE per 2 sq ft
3 is good for a 6 ft tank.

Fsh... thanks for that info. I guess they are voracious little eaters then. I am very curious to see these things in action then. Any ideas on how fast they grow if fed well? I suppose they need good calcium levels to grow their shell though. Hmmm. I really wish I had the time to research this tonight.
And fishkiller and cheer... you two settle down. You're out of control. :D

Dead week wrasse? No. I wish. Everything feels dead when you work weekend overnights. :D IT SUCKS. Ahhh, but that's why they like to exploit us by using the excuse of "paying your dues." :D

Just to stress you two out some more. I had an IE 90 class and an EE 90 class. Wrote out my schedule for finals and yep you guessed it, go the times mixed up. Showed up for the EE final and there was one of my friends sitting in the hall. He asked how did I do, I asked on what and he said the final. I told him it was in 1/2 an hour, he said no it was going on right now. :eek: :eek: Man what a horrible feeling. I kissed the profs a$$ like nothing else and fortunately he made a final just for me. God what an idiot I am. :rolleyes:
Just thought I would add a little stress to your situation :p :D
