Hi everyone, i have been offered some snails however i have no idea what kind they are. They are about an inch long, have a spiral shell and the body and foot are a bright red to orange in color. The shell looks almost like a conch but i am not sure. I don't have any pics at the moment but could get them in a day or two.
Thank you.

Sounds like a Horse Conch from the description. They are predators and will eat anything they can catch if that's what it is. They grow to about 2 feet long at maximum.

Gotta get a picture for anyone to Id it for sure though.
