Purple shell, similar to a sundial. Concerned it will go after my coral but in the months I have had it, no such happening. It was a baby when it came into the tank.

Thank you

Hard to identify as there's soooo many species but I'm sure someone will know, however if it's not causing any damage then there's no concern, I'm sure snails are the least likely to eat corals, they just graze on algae 98% of the time.
If your still concerned... 'if in doubt, throw it out' but I'm pretty sure this snail will not cause damage to your corals... Just my thoughts:)
