Dove snail (Columbellidae sp.). These small, highly variable, beneficial snails rarely hitchhike into aquariums, are good algae eaters (their small size allows them to access areas larger snails cannot), and reproduce quickly. These are often misidentified as Maculastrombus maculatus (once Strombus maculatus).
