So cute, better not be crazy breeders like mystery snails, what a disaster. They would be a pleasure if they didn't have a nasty bioload.

Maybe they resurrected from the coral
What coral?Maybe they resurrected from the coral
After a second look just now, I'm not sure if they are alive or not....or what type they are....try nudging them with a bent wire coat hanger, and see if they move after a while...make sure the operculum is facing downward on the substrate...
Mystery snail reproduction is easy to control, they lay a mass of eggs OUTSIDE of the water, usually on the underside of a tank lid, and are easy to remove and dispose of...pest snails lay eggs everywhere there's water, period, much harder to eradicate
