queen and fighting conchs

[mvogel2]

i've heard a lot of good stuff about these guys. I was wondering can they both be in the same tank? I was thinking of gettin one of each in my 125 gal. reef.
thanks

a lot of poepe say queens gettoo big - I don't know hte particulars. I do know I will be getting some fighting conchs for my large tank.
Noticed your sig - what subject do you teach??

 

[fshhub]

they should be fine together
1 fighting conch per 2 sq ft of sand
I forget what the rule is for queens, but do know they get to be 12 inches

One of each is a good combination IMO. The Queen may eventually outgrow your tank but it's not too hard to find someone to take them from you once they get too big. (hint hint)
