I have one of the strawberry conches from Seacare and he's been toodling around on the sand since I got him. Hasn't burrowed deeper than half his shell yet either. I am really intrigued by these animals, as they seem to have a trunk, a foot, and a huge claw-looking thing that comes out the back that they use when they really need to move. I'm not sure if he's done much for cleanliness, but he's interesting regardless.
