What snail is this ?

[Idech]

I have many different species of snails in the tank but I don’t recognize this one. It’s smaller than a dime. I didn’t buy it for sure.

What is it (sorry about the dirty glass) ?

Thanks

Any chance you could put in a container of tank water and get some pics of the full shell from the top and sides?

Does this help ? The sides were hard to get.

(it’s not on the towel, it’s in a transparent container with tank water).

I'd guess a Dove Snail (taxonomic family Columbellidae) of some kind (which would be harmless/beneficial), but I'm not sure.

I wonder how it got in my tank since I dip my corals ? Maybe hitchhiking on another snails shell ?
