Baby snail (?) id

Out of nowhere this little guy is climbing the glass. I know hard to see in the pictures but any help would be great it is tiny elongated maybe a quarter inch white.

I can't remember the name for the life of me, but it's a slug not a snail I believe (snails have shells)...if it happens to have like a dark brown spot/line on it's back it's the same kind I have and they are great to have as part of your CUC...I just can't remember the dang name lol.

Edit: BTW he WILL eventually find his way into your AIO system of that's the Fluval tank and there's no way to stop it lol. I have a Biocube 32 and he found his way through the overflow slats and now loves it in the back of my tank because that's a detritus gold mine haha.

Thank you so much. Yes he seems to have a little coloration on him.
