I got 2 of these snails to add to my clean up crew last week and my first candy cane coral frag too. I noticed one hanging around the candy cane on the sand bed... Looks like it's eaten some, would that be possible or is the candy cane just retracted? Can somebody ID this snail? It's slightly larger than a marble

I’m having trouble seeing it, could you repost a picture under white light?
 
I'm leaning towards cerith as well
 
Mine were always more elongated like this:

In person they look nothing like this. They are way shorter and dumpy and have visible protruding bumps all around then. Maybe I will try to get a better picture
