I noticed several of these a few weeks after I definitely had snail eggs on the back of the tank. How can you tell the difference between stomella and baby other kinds of snails?
Stomata looks like an actual slug with a small shell on the back. They don't get much protection.

They look a lot different. If you google stomella snail you will see what I mean. They also readily breed.
