What are watersnails?

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.
