I do not know about Olive Snails but purchased a Tulip snail from the local chain pet store.
The Tulip snail along with an astreal snail was bagged together. By time home fifteen minutes later only the Tulip snail remained.
Hard headed lesson - added the Tulip snail to my tank and a couple of hours had to separate the snail from another kind of snail.
The pet store refunded for the Tulip snail plus two perished snails after suggesting the Tulip snail was safe for "my particular reef."
There are beautiful "predatory" or carnivorous snails but not so beautiful from the eyes of other peaceful marine reef life.
