So I got a couple of Apple Snails the other day to find this morning that they both found there way to my HOB Filter Intake pipe. It looked like they were partially sucked out of there shell, so I killed the power to the filter and one fell off and the other with a little push came out. Now there both on the bottom just sitting there, what are the chances they will be fine? I had snails before and never had this problem, I fixed it by taking a piece of the netted Bio Media bag that came with my filter(Aqua Clear) and Zip Tied it on the inlet.
