Getting Snails

So guys, I started up my aquarium about 2 weeks ago with live plants as well as a filter from a friend as he upgraded his current filter. Now my water is a bit cloudy, I was wondering if it would be okay to do a water change in the morning and then get one or two mystery snails in the afternoon in order to add some bio load to the aquarium

Btw, those mystery snails are only for the bio load, I'll be getting assassin snail afterwards

What are you going to feed your assassin snails. I say get different kinds of Nerites. Like the tiger and zebra species

What are the ammonia, nirite and nitrate reading and I don't think you should add them if you dont want to keep them forever. Moreover before buying assassin snail make sure you can feed it other snails or some live food.

Get some pond snails man. They are tough as [nails - moderator edit] and will survive whatever you throw at em.
