Could be a bunch of things but without a picture it's impossble to say. Whatever it is it's spawning.

thank you very much David.
i think it is a Stomatella varia.

Breeding has been observed during the daytime with all individuals climbing up to high points on the live rock and simultaneously releasing their eggs and sperm into the water. This can cause the tank water to look milky for a short time, but is nothing to worry about. The filter feeders get to eat well when this occurs.

Stomatella can move very quickly for a snail.
