Noticed two hitchhiker snails. Stomatella is my best guess but they look different than others I’ve seen. What do you think?

Any chance of a still shot I can’t seem to open your Mov files

If it is a stomatella they vary in appearance and a great additions to your CUC

I caught one last night, here's a photo for comparison to yours. I am lead to believe they are safe

They are safe and good for your CUC
Have a few in my tank
However I see where your questioning of it is or is not a stomatella snail still leaning towards that ID
 
They come in many different colors, black ones are my favorite ones they look so nice, black ones are more rare i read.
