Are these baby snails or something else?

Noticing a few of these on my glass at the moment, 3 of them are visible. They must have came in on a rock because my one snail hasn’t spawned.

They're some kind of snail - I'm just drawing a blank at the moment.

If it helps their shell looks to be circular more than cylindrical and appears to be... stripy? God it's hard to tell they're absolutely tiny, just a bit bigger than a pin head at the moment.

Could be a limpet but it's really hard to tell. They often come in on live rock and corals. The ones we find in the aquarium usually stay fairly small. Good part of the CUC if that's what you got! Pictures of the shell help more than anything.

my guess would be nerite or collonista

Will see what I can do, it's hard to get the camera to focus with how small they are.

A good description can help as well. Are they cone shaped? Do their shells spiral or just the design on the shell? It may just be too hard to tell at that size but the more details the better and easier for us to help ID then.

Better pictures would help for a more positive ID, but I'm still guessing they are nerite snails if they are round-shelled and striped.

Those are collonistas and completely welcomed in a reef. Think of them as tiny-micro trochus snails. They are mostly nocturnal and their numbers will ebb and flow based on available food (algae).
