my snails
I'm not sure what snail it is, but we've got 2 of them. Today when I got home from work, they were both flipped over like they were laying shell down. Is that something some snails do? or is there something wrong w/ them?

if they are astrea snails or something simular they cant upright themselves. so if they fall off the glass or rocks, and they get stuck upside down they will die. so flip them back over and put them on the rocks somewhere.
