Help with ID

Ok...so a little critter that I haven't seen before comes out tonight when the halides go out and and it's just the actinics. I know these pics aren't that great, but does anyone have any idea what this guy is? It's about 1-2" long depending on how it's sitting. To me it looks like a snail with only a small hat like shell. When it starts to move you can see the big foot that it is gliding on.

Its a stomatella snail. Good guy, a helpful grazer, and will reproduce in your aquarium. I have a ton of them.
