I've found one of my trochus snails upside down in my tank four times now in the past three days. Each time he's been just lying there looking dead, making no effort to right himself, but he starts crawling around a few seconds after I flip him over. I'm not sure if it's the same one snail doing this or several snails, I have five in the tank total, plus five nassarius snails who are acting normal.
Anyone know what might be causing this? The snails have been in there for almost 3 months now and I've never found them upside down before this week. I know they're capable of flipping themselves over. My tank parameters are normal; salinity at 1.026, ammonia/nitrite 0, nitrate 15, temp is 78.4. Any ideas?
