They will still eat snails at that size but they are very fragile at that size. I personally don't like to buy them under an inch. good luck! Remember we need pics

Loaches are sensitive to water conditions and diseases. Especially the younger smaller ones. I believe this is what Butterfly means by fragile.

You will need to test your water conditions regularly and be ready to do water changes as needed along with your weekly changes.

here is a good link about them if you have not already seen it.
