Looks like a regular fighting conch to me, just like the one I have in my 120 gal. Really no maintenance, they just clean the sand. They will bury themselves and disappear for days at a time. Mine usually comes out about once a week for a day or two and then buries himself again. I have had him for over a year, so pretty hardy IME.

Yeah, looks like a fighting conch. I love it when you collect something to add to your tank!
