This morning i noticed my snail was on the end of the filter. I left him a while and then when i got worried maybe he was hurt, i took a net and knocked him down. His foot was a little bit sucked up in the filter.
He hadn't moved for a couple of hours from where he landed when i pulled him off the filter. So i took him out and placed him in a little fish bowl with an algae wafer. He did move a very tiny bit and shimmied over to the wafer. I don't think he ate much of it or any at all. Then i thought maybe he's cold (the bowl has no heater) so i put him back in the tank and he hasn't moved and is just half hanging out of his shell.
What do you think? I don't want him rotting in my water, but i can't tell if he's dead or just shaken up from being pulled off the filter from this morning.
FYI-He's also a very active snail, so him not moving makes me think the worst.
