I brought home two mystery snails yesterday. I had a $5 reward to spend. Anyways, what are your experiences with snails? I bought a nerite two weeks ago and it died after two days from falling off a suction cup leaf. I have watched these mystery snails fall from pretty high up on the tank several times, and they instantly start moving again. Are they sturdier than others?

My guess is the nerite had a pretty weak shell due to lack of calcium and your new guys were in better shape.

Get some liquid calcium or look up ways you can give them calcium. It’ll help a lot. Snails are Amazing and fun to watch.

You can also give them Cuttle bone, give them veggies that are
high in calcium, algea waffers (no copper) some people grind up egg
shells

My mysteries used to parachute down the aquarium all the time. Definitely make sure to give them a cuddle bone or access to calcium to help with shell growth and make sure you feed them blanched veggies every few days to keep them happy and growing will
