What Could possibly have caused this???

I've had this couch for over two years now, I have never had any problems with it or anything picking on it. About two weeks ago, I heard my pistol shrimp snapping like crazy in the And found the conch in the defensive position in its shell near the shrimps hole. Since that day, it has not come out of its shell and also has a hole in the back of his shell or I guess the top side of the shell. Since then, the hole has gotten bigger and progressively worse and I do not see it in the shell at all, I'm assuming its dead, But the other conch in the tank is just fine and all over the place.
