Thanks, @Lauren.
I waited quite a bit for it to come out, but I guess she doesn't like my lights :(
This was taken at night.

Very beautiful, you can see a tiny piece of his head sticking out.

Possibly Dyakia kintana, or near. See: http://www.seashellhub.com/Ariophantidae...

The snail is sinistral with a sharply carinate body whorl
