Found this on my frag rack after lights out. Looks kind of like a cowerie but with a snail like foot.

I recently bought 3 money cowrie, but they look way different not sure it the shell is hard or not, odd stripe down the center and odd trunk/snorkel type nose. Again the foot is not like a cowrie with a bunch of tentacle things but a slug/sail foot.
 
maybe cowrie with it's mantle fully extended?

or a stomatella of some kind
I think you are right! It is a money cowrie with his mantle fully extended, I think that is what the stripe down the middle, and the tentacle thing I though was its foot was just part of his mantle.
Thank you!
