Hmmm... do you have any other angles on it? It looks like it has a shell that is round and has an opening right at the bottom. Just a guess, but maybe some kind of cowrie?
 
That is the only one that I have right now, I will try to get some better angles. It is about the size of my finger nail and seams to have a hinged type shell that opens on the botttom. I'll work on get a better picture.

Thanks,

That is a Erronea xanthodon aka green cowrie. They are not reef safe becuase as they grow, they tend to feed on soft corals.
