If you are reffering to snails inside a fish tank, then the best thing to do is to not clean the tank. That is the snails job as they eat the alge produced by the fish. so if you just have snails and no fish, then i suggest you buy fish to suit your tank to help give the snails the food they require.

∙ 14y agoIf you have snails in a tank with foliage of any type you can drip water on the foliage and they will drink from that. Another way of doing it is to dampen a paper towel, place it in the corner of their tank - or if you have a mesh lid, under it- and it will create condensation that they can drink from. Or you don't have to water them, they get water from the foliage - or what ever else they eat! ( Please look at my question's)

Do mystery snails eat their young?
No, the eggs are layed above water and when the baby snails hatch they fall in. from there many baby snails will go into the parents shell for protection. or sometimes on top of the shell. I dont think the parent snails even notice the little ones. often they will push them out of they way to get where they're going, but I've never seen one eat it's young. sources: I breed snails
Are snails smart?
Hmmmm...., in my opinion, garden snails aren't the smartest animals in the world. You see, if you poke them when they are asleep (like when they are in their shells), shouldn't they think a predator is trying to eat them and should go inside their little shell even more ( since I got them from the wild and they are not captive at all). However, the cute not-so-smart garden snails poke their heads out of their shell. If I was a predator, I would've easily eaten him! However, I think water snails (you know, the ones that live in water and that are sold in petstores?) are a bit smarter, depending on which. When i was in kindergarden, we got this really active water snails and put them in our aquarium with the fish. Then my mom left the top open. No problem eh? Wrong! The snails crawled out of the aquarium and when I returned home from school I saw two dried up water snails under our dinner table. That was the kind of water snail I bought when I was in kindergarden (you never know what kind of water snail I could've bought, you know). Last week, I bought two Mystery Snails, and they are smarter. They do NOT climb out of the water. They have these weird sticking out thingys (I know, not good language) and when it touches the surface of the water, they turn back and go down. Ah, smarter. When they go down they usually slip and fall off, but that doesn't mean they're stupid or anything. I hope this information I got from experience has helped you!

I am not a water snail expert, but first (obviously) I know that they are snails that live in water. These snails will dry up when they are outside of water, and when they escape, this usually means the water they are inside is dirty, so check your water quality if you are a water snail keeper. I sometimes call these water snails aquarium snails, the ones that are sold in petstores. There are Mystery snails and Apple snails in this column.
