Answer 1

You might be able to break up the pellets for the white clouds, or at least soak them in some tank water for a minute or two before you feed the fish. If they've softened, it will make them easier for the white clouds to get a bite.

For the snail, it really depends on the type. Some will eat algae, and others will eat plants or fish food. They also like some dark leafy lettuce, or slices of cucumber or zucchini (and you fish will eat these too). If you know the type of snail, you can find out what it eats here: http://www.fishpondinfo.com/snail2.htm

Answer 2

Try crushing the pellets or get flakes, The snail will eat food if it finds some, But if its hungry it will eat algae.
