Snail ID

Hello,
I have a couple of this snail in my reef tank.
I think that it's a maculotriton serriale.
Am I right?
Is it reef safe?
Thanks!

The second snail looks like a bumblebee snail, they are harmless

No it doesn't look like a Bumblebee Snail. Please check here for visual comparison. It's hard to positively I.D. from your pics. Look under hitchhiker.

Right one looks like a Bumble Bee Snail.
Not sure on the left guy.

I own 5 Bumblebee Snails and neither picture is one. Although coloring is similar, Bumblebee shells are smooth and more rounded.

Confirmed that it's a maculotriton serriale.
Should I remove it or keep it?
