Does anyone know what this snail looking thing is?

Found on a frag plug of a frag that isn't doing very well.

The band's in the shell reminds my of a type of marginella snail. Can you put it in a container with some tank water and take some more pictures?

Unfortunately I found it last night and took some photos and then chucked it. I dipped the frag and nothing came off it.

Here are the other photos I took not sure if it's any easier to see.

Did it have hard shell like a snail? Looks like a stomatella snail, harmless.
