I am wondering: do you guys think i can put a couple nerites snails with my WAL or will he just crush them and eat them?
 
In my with my wal they’ll eat everything that’s worth eating. How big is ur lungfish? I know they won’t eat Malaysian trumpets (too small). You could try ramshorn snails. They’re pretty small too. But my guess is he’ll still pick off a few here and there even if it’s small. And larger snails won’t stand a chance.
 
Thanks for the answers. I think I will hold on the nerite snails. I have had 3 in quarantine for 2 weeks and now I am getting attached to them and I will feel bad if they end as a snack the minute i add them with Mr Lunglung. In my lfs they do have a couple nerites with a big lung. He does not seem to eat them but it is a specimen that is pretty much adult so maybe he is too big to get interested.
