This is a picture of this very fascinating snail, acting a bit shy though.

Poso snails aren't brackish, they're FW, same as other species of rabbit snails.

Thanks I was told that this snail would be ok in brackish, so hope he will survive, he seems ok. I do have a tropical tank with cichlids in, do u think I should move him, or wait and see if can survive ?
 
I keep and breed rabbit snails (Tylomelania) and although I have never tried keeping them in brackish water, I would imagine that it wouldn't be good for their long term health. They are freshwater snails.
