Just a warning,
These are local snail as well. And I did see a couple at a LFS.
I got my a couple and later got more info. Anyway, mine are now all sumped.
They are "reef safe" as in they will not attack your corals, zoa and other softies.
I got the photo from Morula (Morula) musiva
And from Wikipedia
I found a small mussel looking shell on my substrate, and it had a little hole in the shell.

Most species of muricids are carnivorous, active predators that feed on other gastropods, on bivalves, and on barnacles. The access to the soft parts of the prey is typically obtained by boring a hole through the shell by means of a softening secretion and the scrapping action of the radula. Because of their carnivorous way of life, some especies may be considered pests, as they may cause considerable destruction in exploited natural beds, and also in areas of culture of commercial bivalves.
