I found a rogue snail grazing on my new Pectinia frag last night. In my frustration, I did not think of taking a pic. It has a black shell with red flesh, about 10mm in size The shell is similar to the bumble bee (Engina sp). Any thoughts, regardless it's going to the sump when I find it. Thanks!

The best I can tell, it looked like a Drupella Cornis ( Coral Predator ). Thank you for Chuck's addiction, it is a great resource.

I agree with the whelk.
Does it have round or squarish shaped ridges on the shell?
