Hello, just curious how UPS treats their mechanics (I've searched w/o finding much). An opening became available near me for 6:00am to 12:00 pm for a tractor/ trailer mechanic. Any ideas what the pay scale would be? $30 an hour seems to be the average. It's in Northern California.
Snails do eat fresh plants but prefer the dead plant matter to live plants. Sea or marine snails live in saltwater. Like their freshwater cousins, they may eat plant matter, namely algae, or animal matter, namely fish or other types of invertebrates. Snails in the Murex family are carnivorous.
Algae is a major food source for snails. Algae will grow on its own in your tank even without fish present. The more light your tank receives and the warmer the water temperature, the more algae will grow on the tank walls, gravel, decorations and plants. Mystery snails (Pomacea bridgesii) often eat algae off healthy plants but not the plants themselves.
