Although reproduction in cone snails has not been widely studied, it appears that most of these snails have separate sexes and fertilisation is internal. Egg capsules of various shapes are laid and attached to substrate. Each capsule contains a varying number of eggs. Two types of hatchlings have been described, the veligers (free-swimming larvae) and veliconcha (basically baby snails).
