I just got some tonga and rubble rock to seed for my sump, this little guy hopped a ride and is everywhere!! I have no idea what he is though...kinda has a mouth like a turbo but has antennea like an astrea. This guys is tiny a few centimeters at most.

Is the shell very small and shaped kind of like a fingernail? If so check photos of stomatella varia

yep, grins you were right
They are great, will breed like mad but even when at their most prolific I still wasn't concerned as they are great cleaners...and free. My shrimp do like snacking on them though.
