I found a snail at petco and it turns out it’s not the type of snail I thought it was. Anyone know this type of snail, and if it’s safe to add to my display? Been holding it in my qt. It’s about 2.5 inches long

Looks like it's possibly a fighting conch, but I'm not a snail expert. If it is, it's reef safe. Can you get a picture of the front?

Looks like a tulip snail and will eat other snails.

Like I said, I'm not a snail expert. After further review I agree with the banded tulip snail.
