Do I have to feed my Mystery Snails actaul food, or will they be fine eating algae, fish waste, etc.
Do Mystery Snails HAVE to eat their own food?

You shouldn't have to feed them unless there is no algae or biofilm visible in the tank for them to eat. And if you have plants they'll probably turn their attention to them if they get super hungry, which would be a good indicator to feed them.

I agree with Brendon. But adding a few algea wafers couldn't hurt. Actually some times all I feed are bottom feeder foods, and the other fish peck at them too.

Good luck trying to keep them from eating any food you add to the tank! haha
Like others have suggested, they won't need much supplemental feeding in a well-established tank with other inhabitants. But I feed mine (intentionally) occasionally and the rest of the time, they eat whatever their tank mates are having if they can get to it.
