My horse conch water canon!!

kryppy · 11/07/2006, 08:01 PM

Check this guy out. He eats snails and stuff.

He really wanted this little conch!!

The poor thing was twisting and running away when I came upon it.

This horse conch is always making a racket in his sump. He bangs his shell on the glass hard enough to make you think it might break.
Anyway, he was shooting water at the small conch!
He also shot the fuge light! haha Here it is on video:

Here he is eating a turbo snail.

Thanks guys. He is 7" long. I just put a tape to him.

He has grown about a 1/2" in six months or so.

Did they show it shooting water?
Also, did you catch the episode title?

Thanks
