Flipped snails

Is it just me or does everyone else have that one snail that constantly needs flipping?

I'm constantly having to flip my turbo snails Otherwise they sit there and don't move.

It's only my Zebra Turbo, my Mexican Turbos do alright.

I had to flip a limpet the other day.... IT'S ONLY GOT ONE SIDE! How do you flip when you're flat?! ;Wacky I can understand snails that are round and can't be fully protected unless they go into their shells. Thus dropping if they are on the glass or a rock. But limpets just hunker down and they're safe.

I love how my trochus snails flip themselves.

I no longer flip snails and have very few survivors there are snail graveyards in my tanks for the hermits to pick through. Used to be daily on many of the snails though. Never needed to flip a nassarius snail though and they are the primary survivor!

Just had to flip 3 more limpets from behind my rock work and a ninja today. I think the limpets get scared when my lights come on in the morning and drop off of the glass. Time to change the timing on the lights and look I to ramping these things.

I think the ninjas are still acclimating and a little sick. At least they are eating good. More than I can say for the orange chestnuts that came in with them. Really worried about them. Minimal eating and moving. I even gave them some noir as I heard snails love it. Is there a particular kind I sound have gotten? They aren't touching it.
