Hi all, wondering if someone could tell me what kind of snail this is. About a quarter inch or so, moves really fast.

appears to be a nassarius snail to my eye.
I think you're right. I wish there was an easier way to search for snails but Google lense wasn't much help. Thanks for the quick reply. I'll enjoy the little guy until the blue legs start eyeing up it's shell. Lol

Agree on nassarius and a regular egg layer and often dwells in the sand bed. Being on the glass, may be preparing to lay eggs
