Can anyone ID this snail? It came out of my classes marine tank project, the only thing i know for sure about it is that it came from Florida.
Thanks

yes whelk i have had a few of these wild caught from florida they are predatory to other snails and shelled animals
 
It's a Busycon species, and probably a Lightning whelk...but there are a couple other skinny species that resemble yours.
