That's not a nassarius snail. It's a predatory whelk. Some eat corals, some other snails, some both.




Thanks x .....darn it man i can't find him now...how you think he got into my tank?? i just added some grass to refuge maybe that way huh
 
It probably came in on the rock. I wouldn't worry too much. Just keep an eye on things and if you see anything getting chomped on, you know at least one suspect. I've kept them in my tanks before and didn't see any issues.
