Sand Bed Clumping

I put 100 Nassarius snails into the 280 tonight. What a show! As soon as I put them on the sand, they started burrowing. Within seconds they were gone. When I fed tonight, all of them resurfaced and started cruising the sand surface looking for scraps. They sure must have very sensitive senses. I'm pretty sure they are going to keep the upper surface of my sand bed moving. Do they move under the sand once they are burrowed in or do they stay put. Anyone know? All I need now are a few fighting conchs. How much do they normally go for? My LFS quoted me a price of $20-30 each. They aren't that much normally are they?
