Anybody feed their conchs?
I think mine are doing fine but I was wondering does anybody put nori under rocks or something just to feed them?
and I also haven’t seen my fighting conch for about 3-4 months now. This has happened before but Im Pretty sure this is normal but does anybody have this happen also? He buried in the sand.

Conch snails are omnivores and their diet will consist mostly of: hair algae or filamentous algae, cyanobacteria and diatoms, and detritus they will do best in an aquarium with lots of green algae for them to eat. Conch snails need to eat a lot of green algae growing in your aquarium as the biggest part of their diet.
