pls help.. do i need to worry about dying cleanup crew

[liz644]

i have alot of nassarius snails which burrow into the sand. To be honest i have no idea if I have all 12 i originally bought. I would agree with some people above that something will eat if if it dies. Snails and hermits are pretty hardy and i'd say that it takes quite a bit for them to die (from what i've seen in my expierience) i wouldn't be too concerned about them

If you think that are dying so rapidly, find the problem. IMO, it would have to be your water perimeters. What are your levels, and temp? Also, do you have any exposed equipment?

kind of off topic here... but how long should a snail or hermit crab live before it dies naturally?
