Critter ID

We found 2 of these critters on the bottom of a small colony that we bought today. It is the gray/brown slug with black spots that can be seen in the picture just above and to the left of the red shell. There were also several gel sacks that looked possibly like eggs, seen below and slightly to the right of the red shell. Any ID assistance for either, or both, would be greatly appreciated . Thanks

its hard to tell when its out of the water, my guess would be stomotella snail. which is a very good snail. any chance you can get some pics of it while its in water?

We have quite a few types of stomatella in our tank, and for some odd reason this critter does not strike me as a stoma. I will see about getting some picts under water later on tonight.. thanks.
