Son of Conch

[bmac300]

Around a year ago i bought a fighting conch. It seemed to be dormant for weeks at a time and then move around the tank and then go dormant again. A few months ago i noticed it at the back of the tank behind some rocks and it has remained in that spot. I assume it has died. Last night I noticed this on the side of my tank and it looks like a baby conch. Thanks to COVID-19 the only thing I've added to the tank is a few small corals so this is a nice free addition. I can't confirm but I wonder if my fighting conch laid some eggs and this is one of the survivors.

Pretty cool thing to find and one of the reasons I love this hobby. Just thought I'd share.

That looks like a nassarius snail on the glass

Not as exciting as a conch but still pretty cool. I thought with the big googly eyes at the side it was a conch. I do have three nassarius snails as well so that makes sense.

I watched my conch clean it’s own shell! Flipping amazing.

my Conch goes dormant for weeks then goes to eat for a day or two... I don’t know why. Conchs are weird XD
