I have yet to see these snails or their eggs, but what I learned this week (from Jack) while putting away a large shipment of clams is that you
should hold the clam inside your hand underwater & rotate it at least once to help it expel any air it might have "swallowed" while being out of the water. I guess ideally, never let the clam emerge from the water but that's tricky to accomplish. Just hold it with your thumb on one shell & your finger on the other shell & slowly spin it before settling it in the tank.
