Queen Conch

[Aynesa]

Anyone know where I can buy a Queen Conch? Preferably a large one, not small.

The only ones legally sold in the US are aquacultured specimens, which are usually offered at just a couple of inches because it's not economical to grow them out any bigger. When properly fed though they can reach 8 inches within 2 years or so.

Yea, I've got one that's outgrown my tank. She's about 6 inches long now. I'm trying to figure out how much is fair to ask for her.
