is it normal for a snail to disappear? the shell was found completely empty in my tank. i only have a betta, ADFs, ghost shrimp, and another snail. i'm not sure, but i don't think any of those would eat it...
 
How big was the snail? Bettas will eat them if they are small enough
 
Its possible that he got eaten, or died and was consumed then. Do a good search of the tank and make sure you can't find any remains before it causes you any problems
 
I searched the tank for anything out of the ordinary and didn't find a thing. Oh well :-/ Poor snaily...Thanks for the help though!
 
Check around your tank. Snails tend to jail break a lot. I once woke up to find one my apple snails crawling alone the middle of my floor.
 
I blame the betta too. I have a couple of ping-pong ball sized mystery snails and my betta tries to bite them sometimes. When i see her gearing up to attack I tap on the glass and yell at her, then she just looks at me like I'm stupid and swims away.
