Conus geographus

[Kershaw]

I was watching a tv show a while ago about this snail. I was just wondering if there are any reported cases of this snail ever being hitch hiked into the hobby. I guess there super dangerous. But since we get coral from Australia I figure it’s possible. Just curious. They look kinda like some common snails we have.

Are you serious?! I didn't think it was legal to keep them since they're regarded as the world's most venomous snail. If left untreated, a sting from a Geography Cone can kill within a few hours.
