I know snails are generally thrown into the "cleanup crew" and arent given alot of credit when it comes to research but i have found out a few things about some snails that are commonly sold in LFS that i think could be helpful. So i figured if i started a thread on their care it might help. So i shall start with what i know and ask a few questions im pretty sure someone can answer easily.

Margarita snails are not suitable for reef temp. aquariums for any major length of time. What about ones with coraline algea growth on the shell?

How would someone clean a dead snail out of its shell?
