is this setup ok? the substrate is coconut fiber and it’s a 10 gallon tank for one snail. i’m looking for more, though.

i got all of the plants from my yard, hopefully they won’t die. i’m not sure if they will like the substrate ahaha. i cleaned them thoroughly so hopefully there will be no unwanted bugs 🐛
the last picture is what i use for hides/ water! he can get inside and climb on top to sit or drink. it’s waxed cardboard so it won’t hurt him if he falls on top of it.

Yes, that tank is astounding. I like the plants, I wish I had some like those! It looks like moss to me.

Unless you’re planning on letting the plants take root and grow, I’d recommend using a little less coconut fibre next soil change. That looks to be about three inches of substrate, when your snail would only need about 1.5 / 2.5 inches. You could save the rest of the soil in a bucket or separate container, so that one brick = two soil changes.
