Feeding snails a varied diet. zucchini........ I was told zucchini & other veggies are good for snails. Makes sense. Where do I put the veggie to feed the snail? Food goes bad & I don't want to be fishing slimy food out every day or two. These are Mystery Snails (2). I have a 10 gallon tank w/ Mollies. Nothing special. There is a whole lot of surface space. Big rocks. Large aggregate. Deco stuff. etc. I put a bit on a skewer & held it near one & dinner was served. Is that what I need to do? Peel & skewer some & lodge it in somehow? Is there a snail food bowl on the market I don't know about? I feel so stupid having to ask but I love my aquatic habitat & my snails look anemic. No muss no fuss w/ the food. Any advice?

Since snails can get almost everywhere, try a veggie clip! one of those should do you well |
That sounds fine. Mine used to also like algae wafers. |
HaHA! A secret snail food bowl! I knew it! Thanks. |
Slice it, then boil it (so it sinks), then freeze it. Then pull a slice out of the freezer whenever you want to give them a treat. Your mollies will like it too! I have three platys, a gourami, and a mystery snail that like the zucchini, and a slice lasts >3 days. Like anything, feed in small amounts and give them more when it's gone. |
