Hi everyone, just looking for confirmation ID on a snail that I picked up today. My LFS wasn’t sure what species; it rode in on some live rock. It is fairly small, not even an inch, and has some very cool coloration and pattern which is what excited me. Smallest conch I’ve seen and I’ve always wanted one for my nano tank.

Just not 100% on ID, based on some time on google and sifting through stuff here it’s potentially a Tonga Fighting Conch. Can anyone confirm?
