Hello,
I ordered a bunch of snails and was wondering what these two are? Trying to get good pics but it’s somewhat difficult as they are extremely small.

Thanks

Looks like you may have some bumble bee snails which will eat other snails. Not sure why they would bag them all together. The stripped ones would be the bumble bees.

This was my order so I don’t think it can be right?

Here's one of my bumble bee snails. See if they are comparable. I've learned that some places don't Id things correctly. But bumble bee is an easy one lol.

These look like what ReefCleaners call dwarf ceriths. Great CUC and very safe. always wish i had more of them. Did you get this order from reefcleaners? if so, that's definitely what they are. BuilderT has a photo of bumblebee, those are less elongated.

They do look more elongated now that you say that. Bumblebees are a bit stubby even the bigger ones, but mine are hiding right now so I can't get a picture of one.

Yes that’s it. Thank you
 
I see why one might say bumblebees for the striped shells but they are not the right shape for bumblebees, likely what others are suggesting
