Where to get conches?

I'd like to add a Queen or Fighting conch. I don't see any on J&L's website. Where do you think I could get one in Lower Mainland BC?

J&L doesn't have them listed on their site but I did get my Queen there. I have not seen any at other stores in the lower mainland. A quick call to John or Allen should get you a conch.

I got my queen from J&L.

Tim @ Seacare often gets them in, try contacting him to see when his next order will come in. I'm looking to add a couple Fighting Conchs to my tank as well.

I have sent both Seacare and J&L email messages last night. Hopefully, someone will have them.

You could try Jayson at saltwater connetion. I got a couple from him. Remember, the queen gets huge. If you do decide to go with Jayson, you might want to try get a few people in on an order as shipping is expensive. I might be interested in getting something.

J&L's don't have them. I was in there today.

Petlovers out here has a bunch of Crowns in. I'm waiting on the Fighting Conch's myself.

Mak, does Petlover's regularly carry fighting conches? I just read that Crowns will eat bivalves so I assume that means my clams could be at risk if I got a Crown.

Never seen the FC's there but they do have a Horse Conch...HEHehe :twisted: . I'll get him to order some in. I could use 2-4 of of dem guys myself. Maybe I'll pop in this week I gotta few Frags for him as well.
