In the short term, you need to salinate the water- most seawater has a salt content of between 3.1 and 3.8 %; 3.5% is a good average, or in other words, 35 grams of salt for every kilogram of water. Make sure that the salt is completely dissolved. This will keep the snail alive in the short term, but sea water contains other minerals as well besides salt, which you'll need to add in correct quantity- for longer-term, more detailed information, contact your nearest marine aquatics dealer.
