My Golden mystery Snail named Larry chipped the top of her shell. We patched it with a egg shell and Krazy glue, she has moved a little through out the night, but won't eat her cucumber. I'm getting a hospital tank for her later today, I'm not sure what to do to get her to eat, I've also added cuddle bone to the aquarium for calcium. My tank is 10 gallons, my Ph is 7.0 and I really would like to save her instead of euthanizing her, but if I have to I will. If someone can help me I would really appreciate it, Thank you.

Unless there's something attacking her in the main tank I'd leave her there,its not a contagious problem, clean water will help with regular water changes(your probly doing that already) got any pictures

My mystery snail has not moved for 24 hours and won't eat anything, her position is upside down, her foot is curled, she is still alive and moves her antenna slightly, and reacts a Little, she's not doing very well, And If I do need to Euthanize her I would Like to know a humane way to do it. Thank you

If you flip her upright does she lay back upside down again?

She's not doing well at all, she's now upside down, and every time I flip her she just turns upside down again, I'm pretty sure I have to euthanize her, she's barely responsive.
