I bought these snails at walmart (I no, I no) they didnt have a tag on them i was wondering what type of snail this is?

The shell comes to a point at the end of it (if this info is any help)

Sorry about the bad quality pic (all pics of my fish come out bad!?! any tips?)
atleast you will get an idea of the snails size

I have been doing some research and i found something call a "Physidae" snail that looks to be the same as my snails now im guessing that is the Scientific name any one know the common name for this snail?

Physidae is a family of snails, Im not sure how many make up the family though. They are commonly called pouch snails. Do a google image search on "pouch snails".
