blue mystery snails
Posted: 13 Jul 2016, 11:07
Hello everyone! I'm new here. I've had some experience with a few types of fish and plants but absolutely no experience with snails.
So my three blue mystery snails that I bought about a month ago are not doing too well. Their shells are apparently disintegrating, cracking, and breaking. I was told by a friend of mine (fish and reptile specialist at at a pet store) that it might be because my water is soft and it doesn't have enough calcium in it. He suggested that I put snail and clam shells in my tank to help with that.
