Ive found that if I boil a leaf of lettuse for a few seconds then put it in the tank, my mystery snail eats all the lettuse and leaves my plants alone. I was getting worried that I would have to get rid of him.

I think that even without boiling it, the Snail will eat it.

I think that a lot of people don't realize when they get mystery snails, that these snails actually have to be fed. I'm glad you're feeding the little cuties.
