I just looked in my tank and one of my Conch snails is dead. The shrimp and brittlestar are eating it. Should I leave it or remove it? I was afraid it would pollute the tank if I left it.

I'd get rid of it.

We took it out of the tank. I am not sure what happened to it. The shells on all my Conch Snails look like they have ridges in them but when I tested for Calcium levels it was 480. I have a 90 gallon tank with course live substrate on the bottom. I was told that was ok for my tank.
