ask the lfs about the shipping invoice or fax, usually have the latin or scientific name as well as the common name.

many common names for the same animal eg. blue tang, palette tang, regal tang, hippo tang etc...

Lol so I asked them for a different name or Latin name. They told me red footed snail. Did some searching and I found red footed conch and they eat other snails lol. Think I'll pass
