These snails suddenly appeared in my tank months after adding live rock. Anyone possibly know what sp these are?

It's hard to tell as it's so small, might be a cerith or nassarius snail if it gets larger. Where did the live rock come from? Knowing the collection area might help point to a species.
I bought it from a reefer, so not much clue on the origin

like @saltwaterfish.com its pretty hard to tell and is probably a baby, maybe a fat dove snail?
Alright I’ll try to get better pictures. Thank you!
