I purchased a fighting conch about 2 weeks ago. It's been going its thing until a few days ago. It's partially buried in my sand but hasn't moved for 2 days. :neutral:


I'm wondering if I should be concerned - we'll I am concerned or I wouldn't be posting this - so I'll rephrase. Should I do anything, how can i check if any things wrong?


Last water test was all 0s


Here's a pic when it was busy doing it's thing:

I have them also. He looks fine to me.
 
I have one in my tank and he will move around the tank eating his greens then he will bury in the sand and stay in the sand bed for a few weeks to a month, pops out of the sand and do it all again. It is neat to see the conchs eye's poke up through the sand bed.
 
I have three in my tank and they sometimes sit in one place for days at a time. Bet he's fine.
