Mysterious Snail Deaths

My snails keep dying off. I don't know if they are just bad stock but its mostly my mexican turbos and regular turbos. It looks like they fall into the sand bed and can't flip themselves back over. I try to save them when I can but it seems they just end up right back that way. Anybody have any ideas as to what will cause this?

Thanks guys!

 

unfortuantely this is the norm as far as i know i just chaulk it up and try to fix the ones that i see.

 

yea im having the same problem with mine there not to bright. Nothing you can really do but try to flip them back over when and if you see them.

 

one thing worth mentioning though, they are very sensitive to stray voltage. So if you don't have a grounding probe that could be the cause of the issue. All of a sudden mine have started doing that when they didn't before. I have a ground probe on the way.

 

You have a grounding probe in the tanks > this is what I find most often to cause the My snails are dying post .. If its not grounded might want to look into a Grounding the tank or alteast test for voltage

 

in my tank if you dont filp your self fast enough you become hermmie food, little basterads

 

You got that right I say flip or die I actually know people who will dive in to flip a snail ,, Not me If the Hermits are not motivation enough I say don't fall if you can get up ..

 

hahahahaha, exactly my feeling on the subject, if im in there i will flip on, otherwise you better hurry. most people hate hermits, and i agree they are little jerks, but man are they fun. they are my little reef gang, dont mess with them casue they want your house.
