Hey everyone, I picked up 3 snails today. 2 I’m pretty sure are Indonesian Nessarius but the 3rd one I’m not sure what it is. It was sold as a nessarius and I’m aware there are predatory whelks that look like nessarius and want to be sure this isn’t one of them. It doesn’t seem to have the “patterns” on the skin like the predatory whelks, but that’s as much as I’m able to glean. Thanks in advance!
