Snail Id

I caught my astreas and margarita snails in a spawning event one night. A few weeks later I have a bunch of these snails. Could these be baby margarita snails?

Here is another one in the center of the image.

If you are talking about the snail on the left center part of the 2nd pic, that look like an astrea to me. The first pic looks like the foot of an astrea too. If you are talking about the thing on the right center part of the 2nd pic (cone shaped), that looks like a cerith snail to me. I think that may be a hermit in a cerith snail though.

The only snails I have had much success in breeding in captivity are stomatella and nerite snails.

This is the snail I am referring to.

That is definitely NOT an Astera snail as they have a very conical type shell that comes to a distinct point. That looks more like a margarita snail. The baby snalls will be very small for quite some time (possibly years) before they get to the size shown in your picture. Those are adults, not babies.
