3rd conch for 32.5 gallon?

[Kapachuka3]

I like conchs, i already have 2 one fighting and one tiger. I am considering getting maybe another one. What species would mix? Is three too much for 32 gallon? The two i have are doing fine and i have heard that two fighting conchs would eventually kill one of them. Advice?

Hello?

I don’t believe fighting conches actually fight. The main thing is to meet their food requirements. Reef cleaners sells small ones.

Cool, ive heard multiple things, would there be enough room for all of them though?

Yeah, I’ve heard that the only fighting they do is the males will compete for territory and breeding, and the sites mentioned that the fighting is non-lethal (they more just push each other around rather than actually try to harm each other is my understanding), so all of the conches should be fine if there is any aggression.

I don’t know if it’s enough room, so I’ll let someone else answer that, but as long as there’s enough room for multiple males to have their own territories, they should be fine.

I've got 2 small Tiger or Strawberry Conches from Reefcleaners in a 25 and they do fine, so I bet 3 would work in yours.

If I had the room I'd get a Spider Conch from reefcleaners but the shell size is to big for my current tank.
