Snail ID please

ive seen this thing on my polyps when i got it and i recently realized it was a snail, is it good, or bad?

Take a look and see if it has a cone shaped operculum. I have a feeling it's a Polyp muncher.

yea, you can kinda see it in the second picture, it is a white spiral

Get that puppy out of there. And keep an eye out for more.

What is the operculum--I can guess (and probably be right), but never heard of that word before.

The little trap door the snail uses to cover the mouth of the shell when it retracts.

Yep. I missed that. It's a polyp muncher.
