If they seem to be eating algae, I'm going to guess they're "good guys" in that regard. There's a Rissoid that is similar in size, habits and appearance to yours, so it could be that. What adult snails do you have in there? Do you see any that's an "inbetween size". A lot of times if snails are reproducing in your tank, you'll be able to see them at different developmental ages. Like a range of sizes. Do you seem to have all small ones and then all adult ones? Or is there a bunch of different sizes from small to large?

If ever you really need to know, you can mail me a couple specimens between some tissue and duct tape and thrown in an envelope.
