I wouldn't worry about them too much, they will just slowly move around the tank and eat whatever is left over from dinner time or have a munch on some live plants. U can get spirulina discs that soften in the water and sink that they will love for a change in their diet, but basically they will generally look after themselves. Hope this helps :oD

If you got snails from the wild how do you care for them?

Keep your snails in a tank filled with water. Snails, from the wild or not, will love to eat aquarium plants that are sold at any pet store. Also, don't keep the tank to clean, for they like to eat small amounts of algae off the tank walls. I also feed my snails shrimp pellets, which they love! Good luck taking care of your snails!

What fish clean other fishes?

There are many different aquarium animals that will clean algae off the walls of your aquarium. I will name a few: Cories, Plecostomus (AKA, Pleco) and more. There are some algae eaters that are not fish. Mystery snails, freshwater snails, and other water snails eat algae. Ghost shrimp are small and are very easy to take care of. They clean the decorations in your fish tank and eat any uneaten, leftover food.
