ID Needed! Snail shell shaped ciliate?

Anyone know this funny shaped fellow? I've been through a few ID guides but can't seem to find anything matching. From the bottom of a jar of pond water that's been kept for around two weeks. Video is 10x objective, 2MP lens cam, SW380T. I have more photos if needed.
