The strawberry conch, also known as the tiger conch, is a large, peaceful, and hardy snail that is a good addition to a saltwater aquarium:
-
AppearanceStrawberry conchs have distinctive, elongated, spiral-shaped shells that can be reddish-brown to pink in color. They often have many knobs and ridges.
-
BehaviorStrawberry conchs are known for their distinctive way of moving, using their muscular foot to "hop" or "jump" across the substrate.
-
HabitatStrawberry conchs prefer sandy substrates and are often found in seagrass beds and rocky areas.
-
DietStrawberry conchs are detritivores and omnivores with a voracious appetite for detritus and uneaten food. They can also eat bristle worms and cyanobacteria.
-
Tank requirementsStrawberry conchs require a sandy substrate to burrow into and a suitable food source. They also need stable water parameters, such as a temperature of 76-78° F, pH 8.1-8.4, and salinity 1.024-1.026.
-
CompatibilityStrawberry conchs are generally peaceful and can coexist with various marine species in a saltwater aquarium
Clean Up Crews only Ship on Monday - Thursday to avoid sitting in hot/cold trucks & warehouses over weekends. They all ship via UPS Overnight Service.
Clean Up Crew Basics & Why Ours are Different!
- We ship UPS Next Day on All Orders, no slow shipping no USPS, we want the best chance of success for all your tank inhabitants.
- All of our invert tanks are Fallow, we do not keep them with fish.
- If you have an issue with something dying, we will make it right by refund or reshipment. We know buying livestock online can be tricky at times.
- We don't buy/sell micro pea sized livestock. All of our snails, crabs, etc we purchase Medium to X Large sizes. I hate buying clean up crews online and getting hundreds of small barely viable inverts.
- We check your shipping location before packing and include the appropriate number of heat/cold packs. Being a larger company we aren't afraid to spend more on shipping and packing to give your animals the best chance at thriving.
- Flat Rate UPS Next Day Air anywhere in the lower 48 states.
- We are building this program from the ground up so we can control everything. We do not drop ship. We control the animals we select, the husbandry, prep, pick, pack, ship. The entire process. We are just getting started.
