Hello all! These three were hitching on some frags I bought today...are any of them worth keeping? Thanks in advance! I'm very new to this

All of these are beneficial snails that graze on algae and multiply over time.
1. and 3. are Stomatella snails. Beige coloration is more common than stripes.
2. is a Collonista snail, which are more rounded than undesirable sundial snails. These stay very small.
