Best small conch for macro tank?

[reddevilant]

So I have a 90 gal tank with a whole lot of rock so that I can place macro algae all over and at any elevation. So, this means the open areas of sand aren't too big, I'll attach a pic so you guys can see. So I was wondering what is the best species of conch to stir up my sand that is a bit on the smaller side.


Here is an old full tank shot. The tank is 4 feet wide 2 feet long. The biggest open areas are sections in the middle in front of and behind the rock in the center. The tall structure all the way on the left is actually U-shaped so there's an open area in the middle that is not enclosed because the bottom of rock has arches on all three sides. I just want to make sure I don't get a conch that is going to feel crowded since I don't have massive open spaces. I believe conches are safe with macros, even if they are not, I don't have any macros that a conch could reach. Any suggestions? Thanks!

tiger/strawberry conch stay smaller than the more common fighting conch.

^ small assorted strawberry from reefcleaners will be perfect.

I'm so glad to hear that, I have a 35G and I got 2...and they've managed to clear out almost an entire month of growth. hearing that someone else has 2 has reassured me that they aren't going to starve.
