I have 1 Black Mystery Snail, 1 Gold Mystery, 1 Ramshorn, and 1 Blue Snail (which looks like a Black Mystery, just with alot of blue. Is this even the official name because I can't find info on it). Anywho, they are always crawling around about 80% of the time when I watch the tank. Very active at home even when they seem lethargic at the store.
