I bought 3 Cerith snails. I can't find them and haven't seen them in days. I have checked the upper rim of the tank in cause they decided to dry off a bit, but nothing. I don't see any empty shells either. No bodies nothing. I don't smell anything outside my tank so I don't think they cralled out. Their not in my sump...

Do they hide in the sand like Nassarius snails?

Yes. They bury themselves in the sand.

Yes, depending on the species. Lots of them will bury themselves in the sand and only be visible on rare occasions.
