Turtle Sand Conchs??

[EliteTwit]

Been trying to search for these too, don't feel like waiting till 3am to use reefcentral, nothing on google, and nano-reef doesn't seem to have anything on them at all either. Maybe some can aid in this search as well. http://www.fragglereef.com/zen/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1&products_id=35
That is the link. I always wanted one but didn't want to chance them in a 7g. Anyone know anything about them?

I haven't heard of those before, but I have another mini conch type snail here that breeds regularly...

Strombus maculatus

if ya want some, and go to a meeting, let me know.. I'll bring enough to start a breeding population for ya (6 or so). (a frag donation for me is always welcomed too ;P )

Thanks I'm going to try and get to the meeting but I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to this time. I only have two zoo frags right now but nothing big enough to frag, soon as they get there you are more than welcome to them. My current tank is only a 7g. It has a nice sandbed but is there gonig to be enough for them all to eat? I feed the tank every few days to keep all the inverts happy so that won't be a problem, I just wouldn't want any to die if they do reproduce THAT quickly.
Thanks
