Noticed two hitchhiker snails. Stomatella is my best guess but they look different than others I’ve seen. What do you think?

Any chance of a still shot I can’t seem to open your Mov files

If it is a stomatella they vary in appearance and a great additions to your CUC

They are safe and good for your CUC
Have a few in my tank
However I see where your questioning of it is or is not a stomatella snail still leaning towards that ID
