Living "sea shells" ?
Ok so I noticed today I had a few "sea shells" alive and moving in my tank, mostly they just try to hide, what are these guys I have a ton of dead ones in my sand but I never put much thought into living ones and what they are?
anyone know much about these shells?

Is it one half of a shell? Could it be a stomatella snail?

Looks just like a bivalve from what I looked up. Its under the sand now but I first seem him sticking to the glass before I acidently knocked him into the sand before he burrowed under.
