I have 4 apple snails in their own 5 gallon aquarium. I wanted to move them into my 10 gallon w/ my mollies. However, I always put some aquarium salt in the 10 gallon. Will this kill my apple snails if I add them in?

"Apple snails tolerate little amounts of salt if you slowly build up the concentration. Be sure that the salt is dissolved before you put it in the tank so that the snail won't get in contact with the pure stuff.
If you see that the snails stay in their shell for more than a day, then lower the salt concentration"
