The cone shells (family
Conidae) are very popular shells among collectors because
of their great variety of colours and patterns. Conical in shape. The animals of every single cone are carnivorous, feeding on other mollusks,
worms and small fish that they capture by injecting venom through their teeth.
The glory of the sea cone is a glossy, heavy fairly tall-spired shell with a body whorl morethan twice the spire's height.
Habitat: deep water, West Pacific.
