Mystery snails

[nasdds]

Anyone have an ID on what these little baby snails are? I have thousands of them that come out at night with the lights off. I always thought they were limpits but under a scope they look different. I have zoas that have been closing up a lot and wondering if these are contributing to that. Thank you.

Could be a sundial snail which is bad as they are zoanthid eaters.
This is what their eggs look like. (1st pic)

or

More likely it’s Collinista snails which are reef safe and commonly come in on frags and live rock.

Yours looks more like the latter.

I think you’re right. After googling Collinista snails that’s what they look like. Also read that they come out at night which is exactly what these snails do. Thank you so much for taking the time to make such a detailed response.
