I pulled this out of the tank and looked at it. It appears to be a baby snail. But I'm not sure.

I put it back. Although I'll probably never find it again if I need to get it out.

In this picture, you can see the "feelers" I think.

If it's a snail. Other than leaving it alone, what are your thoughts? Does it need shells? Why are they propagating? I thought you had to buy snails. Is this good?

Dumb questions, I know.

Looks like a stomatella but hard to tell by the pics. If it is they are harmless ad a good part of a natural clean up crew

No problem. Ya they come out mostly at night and consume algae. Cause no harm and have several in our dt and frag tank
