I think they're called bladder snails. They're small, brown, and have fragile shells. They and their eggs hitch rides on plants.

Most commonly you'll find ramshorns or pond snails. I've never heard of bladder snails. Malaysian trumpet snails are excellent at eating detrius and will burrow in your substrate helping eliminate anaerobic gas buildup. They're like earthworms in your garden.
