Would sea snails (saltwater) survive in freshwater?

Question

i know that you can get freshwater snais

i was just wondering

Answer 1

NO. Most aquatic life is adapted to a rather specific salt concentration.

Creatures that can go from fresh to salt and vice versa are the exception, not the rule.

Answer 2

I don't mean to be a butt, but if a sea snail is called a SEA snail, I think it would be meant for the sea. Not freshwater.

Answer 3

No, you need saltwater. As a matter of fact, the minimum healthy specific gravity for most popular species (such as turbos, astreas, nerites, and ceriths) is 1.024-1.025, which is approaching the upper limits (though still healthy) for many marine fish.

Answer 4

No, you must buy a freshwater snail to survive in the water conditions. Sea snails will only do well in the saltwater. The snail will no doubt die in the new water. For further questions write more details.

Hope this helps :)
