Snail id

Hi Everyone. I'm a long time follower. First time poster.

I've had my tank up and going now for about 7 months. Last week I noticed a ton of baby snails in it. Currently I have 3 Trochus snails but might have picked up a batch of something in some chaeto I acquired. Current voting amongst friends is tied 3 to 3. 3 being for baby Trochus and the other 3 for collonista snails. Was wondering what others thought??

Thanks everyone.
