    that may not be it though if you see them out and about moving around. maybe a good baby snail

    hopefully its good but it doesn't have those segmented rings, but the color is the same.

    Perhaps a nerite? They come in all sorts of colors and patterns and are a very similar shape to your snail. Interesting fact about nerites, they can live in both fresh and salt water

    My first thought was a Nerite as well. You can identify them easily by the dark colored foot.

    Looks like a nerite to me. They are good. No worries.

    nerite snail. that's as big as they get and will breed and multiply in your tank

    It's a collonista snail. It is a harmless hitchhiker.

    Correct. They are about the size of a bb.
