Found this yesterday evening. Best picture I could get. I think its a Stomatella Snail. can anyone verify?

Its purple color and white lines make it really cool looking. It appeared to be grazing on the algae on the rocks

Yes . Stomatella. Ended up buying several for the tank. Great workhorses and they’ve been reproducing like crazy.
