Snail ID

[HellaDudes]

Can someone please ID this snail that hitchhiked in on something? It survived an aggressive dipping process. Body is bright red in color. I see this guy all over the tank; rocks, glass and sand. It is some kind of snail? Or is it a conch of some kind? Reef safe?

Here’s what Wikipedia has...I would probably remove it or sump it myself...
Feeding habits
Triplofusus papillosus is a carnivorous predatory species, and feeds on other large marine gastropods, including the tulip shell (Fasciolaria tulipa), the lightning whelk (Sinistrofulgur perversum), and the queen conch (Lobatus gigas) as well as some Murex species.[4][5] It may also present cannibalistic behaviour, feeding on smaller conspecific individuals.[4] It has been observed (in an aquarium setting) to eat small hermit crabs of the species Clibanarius vittatus.
