Is it hard to take care of saltwater snails?

Answer 1

i never really did snails, but when i was younger i did indeed try sea slugs. I didnt really try to get one, i was on the beach and I found a cool peice of coral on the shore and wanted to dry ir out when i got home. Little did i know that it held a bright red and very fancy sea slug. I constantly changed it's water (natural salt water i got from the beach), got it an airator, and even constantly bought it plants. But it ate all the plants within a day, the airator kept on getting clogged by stray bits of feces, and we were spending a fortune on gas driving to and from the beach to get it fresh water. the answer is, yes, it is very difficult. if you cannot get saltwater from the beach, don't even bother. It is very hard to measure salt that you need to put into the water. If you are an expert of saltwater animals or other pets, you may have a chance. All i had was a preschool teacher mother, an mechanical engineer father, and my books, in which had nothing on taking care of aquatic slugs. you may have a bit more experience with pets than i did, but having someone near you that can make rigs to constantly switch water samples back and forth or fix a clogged up airator helps too.
