I just bought two mexican turbo snails last night and I stuck them in my QT when I got home. This is my first time having these.

Is there anything that could be on these guys that would harm my main tank? I want to be very carefull about what I introduce into my tank. I also don't want them to starve in my QT which is very clean.
 
Underneath them, where they retract in the shell. Check if there are little snails with a spiral shell. If so pull off. They eat things sometimes.
 
You will have to watch to see if they flip over because if you have an zebra they will eat them thats what happened to mine when I put them in. I got 12 of them in 2007 winter and now there are only 3 left.
