I got some free snails from Petsmart. Before I drop them in I would like to know if they could be harmful to the little guy.

I want to put them in the tank to help keep it clean.. but it is not wroth it if they can become sick becuase of it .

If the snails are healthy, they won't make your turtle sick. Why did they give the snails to you for free?
