if your nassarius snails wont go on the sand, it is possible they are actually a whelk. whelks can actually be a predatory problem and are often misidentified by an LFS. could you post a picture of the "nassarius snail"?

the rest of those snails will usually stick to the glass or rock work.


in a tank that size i think nassarius snails are the best thing you could put in the sand bed, they should be turning it over all the time.
