I was wondering what the specifics were between these two conches. The store has them listed as the same “strombus fighting conch” but says one is suitable in 10 gal and the other 30 gal.

What store?

Guessing it’s online, since the bottom one is an online photo, I see all the time.

Have a link?

fragbox is pretty expensive, have a look at candy corals, they sell fighting conches for $18, and strawberry conch for $26. They also sell fire shrimp for $40, good prices overall, better than Big Als, and good customer service too

Crazy.... I just picked up a tiger conch for $20, but a few other stores about 40 mins passed the one I bought it from sell them for $16.

Not sure I could afford this hobby where you live lol.

I went to Petco today (don’t ask), and they had fighting conchs for $5.29.
