I’ve seen them tags on maricultured sps.

Yes it’s a tag from a mariculture facility.

Look up Stomatella snails and see if that's a match for your specimens. If so, they're harmless/beneficial CUC.

No they aren't thoes. I have a few of thoes alrety.
They aren't flat. They also don't seem to have much of a mouth.

Hitchhiker ID Please! Stomatella?

Hey all, our new 55 gallon with 90 lbs live rock has been running for 2.5 months now and we're still finding new stuff :) This guy popped out yesterday, first time I've seen him. Stomatella snail?

Maybe like that fourth one?
They never seem to flatten out like all the stometella I've seen.
