I have 2 fighting conchs in my tank and I have had them a little over a week and they have gone to town on all the algae etc in the tank. They are working so fast on it I'm concerned they are going to run out of food.
I didn't believe them to be much of climbers but I have one that made it almost half way up the tank today.
You can see in the pic there's plenty of food there but if they keep it up I believe by the end of the week there's not going to be much left.
Before it gets too late is there anything I can do to feed them manually or do I just return one of them to the lfs. Thinking il return one of them anyway as they are absolute machines.
