ahh!!! I feel so bad, I pulled a rock out of my aquarium to check for pest snails/eggs and I didn't realize my golden mystery snail was attached!!! She fell like 5 feet onto the concrete floor and made a nasty breaking sound. She has a curved crack along the bottom of her shell and I can see her skin through the little gap.
Do you guys think she could survive!? Or is she bound to die...?

well I ran out last night and bought some crazy glue, after I glued his shell I put him in a breeder with some food to be alone. He seemed to be doing better almost immediately, he popped on of his antennae out and was slo[Only Registered Users Can See Links.] opening. This morning he was fully open and just sitting in the breeder so I released him back into the tank.
Thank you for your advice really it saved my snail! (so far so good atleast!)
