There are over 400 different pasta shapes ranging from Long pasta much like spaghetti and vaying from there to be thinner or thicker or hollow or ridged. Then there are short cut pastas like Ziti or Rigatoni. These are also, hollow, solid, ridged, flat surface and some that are even completely flat. Stuffed pasta shapes such as ravioli and tortellini. Soup pastas or pastina such as alphabets, stars and orzo which is pasta shaped like rice. The list goes on and on and you could literally eat pasta every day for a year and not have the same pasta shape twice.
It will last 4 days.
Dried and fresh, which looks dried but has considerably more moisture in it, and needs about half the cooking time.
Zita is a tube pasta that is similar to penne but with a slightly larger diameter. Penne zita is approximately 1 1/2 inches long. "Zita" refers to the type of cut. Most Penne pastas are cut diagonally across the tube where the "Zita" is a straight cut across the tube. The pasta is usually made of high-gluten semolina flour and can be kosher.
I would go with penne or rigatoni. I realize that they are wider versions, but the key is the hole in the pasta. The sauce will coat the inside of them. Just like bucatini.
Long enough to when you throw it towards the kitchen cabinet it sticks! Hope this helps!
Sauce can cook and simmer for a long time before serving. Pasta needs to be served at the perfect time that it is ready. Rick2006

According to the National Pasta Association , 8 ounces of uncooked long pasta, such as spaghetti will yield 4 cups of cooked pasta. Thus, a "serving" of 2 oz. uncooked spaghetti will be the nutritional equivalent of 1 cup of cooked spaghetti.
You cook water to a boil, break the pasta in half, put it in the pot, and wait until it looks and tastes ready( pull out and eat a noodle occasionally to see if it's ready)
