feixjai Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 How do you guys keep your snails alive or from flipping over? For some reason, I always see my margarita snails flipped upside down in the back of the tank, where I cant reach them to flip them back? Why is it that they flip over? Nothing seems to be bothering them? Also, since i have an all-in-one tank, they always climb out of the water and into the rear chambers where they just flip over on their backsides and die. Anyone know any suggestions to block the their access to the rear chambers and a way to keep them from flipping over? Thanks in advance. Link to comment
ealshabaan Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 i have the same situation but i just keep them trying to filp themselves back and they always can do it sometimes it will take them hours! Link to comment
JustReef Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 I think margaritas are the snails that are actually from temperate waters and never do well in a tropical reef aquarium. My astreas were doing this and eventually died. Turned out my sg was at 1.029 because of a bad hyrdometer. When I got my salinity back to normal I had no more problems. Link to comment
