I am wondering if the color in the picture is a little bit misleading, and that it is a smaller species of Planorbis, one of the species in the group commonly referred to as pest snails, although they are not pests in the eyes of everyone. The way it is carrying the shell flat makes me think so.
Im sure @dw1305 would know though
