Title: id Question

Anyone can guess what this is?
It's hard to get a good pic.
would not be a baby snail?
That snail is staying there for whole day and doesn't move.

Would this thing be harmful?

It's too late. It's gone.

It crawls and has two antenna.
It looked like a baby snail....but not sure...
most baby bugs look same....

Q is if snails lay babies in home aqua.

When I did freshwater, I didn't mean to get a snail,
think it came along with plant.
sometime later, so many snail all over.
But, my chiclids were eating them...so...
not much problem...

Yes snails lay eggs in our saltwater aquarium. I get snail eggs ont eh glass all the time.  Some might live but most get eaten by someting else in the tank.

It may have been a stomatella. Did it look like it had just half a shell?
