Hello everyone!
I was told a while back that Nassarius snails don't eat very often but they eat a lot when they do eat. As such, I haven't been feeding him but maybe once a week or so.

Should I be feeding my snail more often? It's in a pico tank.

If there’s no algae, detritus, or anything else in there, feeding 2-3 times a week should be plenty.

I never feed mine, its a scavenger, it will scavenge for food. It will even eat fish poop (not poop actually but the uneaten food in the poop), thats his job.
