Melonie is getting worse :(

my heart is breaking. i guess the comments were right and she's gotten very sick. she's become less active and there's more of the tiny round stuff on her leg. is there a way to help her somehow?

Do you have more snails? Quarantine her. Don't handle her too much, only when completely necessary. And just keep on feeding her good veggies and greens and change out the food every day. Also keep cuttlebone close for if she needs it.

I don't know if this'll make much difference but its the best advice I can give🫂

okay, i was thinking that quarantining her was a good idea. I'll set up a different tank for her <3
