good or bad snail

[kfra]

I can't tell what kind of snail this is. I have looked at a few sites and links from other posts and I am more confused than when I started looking.
About 3/8" long, I see them on the glass and the sand so i think they are ok?
they have been laying eggs on the glass and if i need to get rid of them i think now is the time to start. I don't remember buying these so they had to be a hitchhiker. good or bad.

bumblebee snail??

It's a columbellid, also known as Dove Shells or by some of the sellers as "Strombus Grazers." It shouldn't cause any problems in your tank, so I'd call it a good guy.

Cheers,

was wondering because I have the same style snail but the pattern is vertical and bumblebee looking pattern is this a bumble bee snail?

because this snail in the pic looks different and mine more like a nassarius snail

just curious because I'm looking to start collecting small snails
