Got a few snails today from my lfs they all seem to doing pretty good in the tank except one that still adjusts positions in one spot but doesn't move much.

Can I safely give him an over night in the tank to make sure he'd alive without him dying and ammonia spiking the tank?

Also can someone I'd the snail as well I got a few diff kind at once. I forgot which one this was

Looking at the tank im not sure if he's moved in a while. Lights just turned off for the night so I'll check on him in 30
 
What’s your magnesium level at? That can sorta shock them if it way different than where they came from.
My mag checker is in the mail was supposed to be here today but is late.

The store I got it from uses the same water as I do. I wouldn't be surprised if he is shocked.

How long should I leave him there. Don't wanna throw him out alive cruelly but don't want ammonia spike
