Any idea what this small snail could be in my reef?

I think I have a guess, but want to see what everyone else thinks it is.

Thanks!

Limpet. Likely film algae eater.

Thank you. Looks better than my guess. I did quick research, looks like the reef safe kind. Would you agree?

I don't think it's a limpet. Maybe a slipper? Your first picture looks like mine but not the third.

^ A definite possibility. I don't think I have ever seen one not attached to a snail.
