They usually leave live plants alone and spend more time in your substrate eating dead plant matter and left over fish food. They'll also eat algae. Overall, not a very bad snail compared to common pond snails. IMO, they do not breed as prolifically as common pond snails either.

they'll be absolutely fine. they eat dying plant matter, but not living. they barely leave the substrate at all- just churn it up looking for food!
