I first noticed some flat discs sometimes on my glass, but didn't pay to much attention to them

Now, they look more like very tiny snails. Almost like a Trochus snail, but super small. I'm sorry for the picture quality, but they are very small and hard to capture. I may need to grab one and try to photograph it out of the tank.

I hope someone here can tell what they are

From the images it might be ? Lake Limpet - Acrolocus lacustris and River Limpet Ancylus fluviatilis
If it’s not it’s probably Trochus Snail

Is it freshwater or saltwater ?

I am not 100% sure so don’t quote me on it lol
 
some sort of limpet for sure.
i have some in my tank as well.

Limpet. Mine goes after algae and Coraline
 
You guys nailed it. I looked at some better pictures online and they look just like mine.

Thank you very much for all your help guys.
