Fairly sure these are pyramid snails, they only seem to be on my astrea snails though not red banded thought that was interesting.. another plus for red banded? 8F71338A-59D3-405C-8B7A-641356A5F33A.jpeg

Definitely if you see them on clams, I believe they attack the foot. It didnt seem like they where bothering the astrea that much although them just being alive means they are getting food somewhere.

I removed as many as I could find
