Can I keep a coral banded shrimp and a peppermint shrimp in the same tank?

Did you make that "durso" pipe for your overflow? I have been wanting to do that, but I was not sure if it would fit in the overflow box.

I will have to give that a try, my overflow box is different, but it sounds like a waterfall. What did you use? A PVC "T", cap, and a check valve? Just like the Druso's for drilled overflows?
Nice looking tank by the way.

Thanks for the complement. I used PVC, no check valve, I used a t and cut an elbow down to size and clued those two together and added a cap. drilled small hole in cap. It stopped all the noise.

Wasn't sure how many to get I didn't want them to starve...the conch's were sold in threes, they are small only about an inch
Do you know what type of conch they are? I'm curious how big they will get...
I would get a dozen nass (or 10) depending how the place you buy from sells them....(if they are the little guys)

WELL....I have a few Florida Fighting Conch, and they are 4-5"
I have a few "Little Bear Conch", and they are 1 to 1 1/2" max
these:::https://www.saltwaterfish.com/Little-...ch_p_1840.html
The Little bears climb the glass and everything....the others never leave the sand bed, and stay buried a lot
p.s. get some of the little nass snails
