I managed to take a pic of a baby snail however it doesn't look like the 2 type that have laid eggs about a month ago. (Cerith & Nassarius)
Tank has 3 Cerith, 2 Nassarius, and 1 Nerite.

Could it be a Nassarius but the tube hasn't developed, a Cerith but not yet elongated or something else?

Stomella snail. Great algae eater
Eggs are that of a cerith snail

+1 on snail ID. Pic #1 of eggs, certainly Cerith. Pic 3, not 100% certain, but I'd bet my house, Nassarius.
