Mystery snail help

[Jacob._.merc]

Ive had this mystery snail for about a month or so and over the time his shell has been turning white and has green streaks on it. I have some big fish with him and i dont know if its them just knocking them around. His shell is like thinner in some areas, almost transparent.

It looks like a calcium deficit, I'd get some cuttle bones and chuck them in the tank.

Hello; This makes some sense and is similar to what I am thinking. If a needed mineral is lacking such a result could happen.
I was thinking more along the lines of a food source having an influence on the shell color. Not so much a deficit of something as the food source available adds something which might be incorporated into a shell.
There has been a spoiler in my tanks in the last 50+ years. I have had snails nearly the whole time. Plenty of calcium in my water and 99% of the snails have a common shell color. However a few have grown out with white shells. May be a genetic difference or some other sort issue.

I agree with fishhead. Cuttle bone and make sure you are feeding it.

Cattle bone, sometimes the necessary nutrients and minerals arent in the water
