Rescued Fish

All three fish are doing great, but a strange thing just happened -- I looked in to sonly se two fish.  The shark went inside a conch (?) shell and has been in there for about an hour.  At first I could see his tail, but now he's totally gone inside.  Will he be able to come back out?
 
My ammonia and nitrite levels are at zero now, and nitrates are at a smidge above zero, so it looks like the tank is actually cycling.  Yay!  I ended up breaking the shark out of his shell.  He looks a little worse-for wear I don't know exactly what happened in there but he doesn't seem as graceful as he was before.. but at least he's alive...
 
Thanks for all the help in getting things where they should be.
 
I hope they pull through. And don't beat yourself up. Zero of the fish would of made it if left abandoned forever so it's better to try and do something than nothing at all.
Good luck and keep us updated!
