Default Snail food

I have some black snails that live in my Daphnia tanks and I've been
feeding them iceburg lettuce which they seem to enjoy. But I'm wondering
what other foods they will eat? I've tried grasses and clovers, they don't
have any interest in those. I drop the occassional algae wafer in for the
Daphnia although the snails don't seem to pay much attention to the algae.
So what do they eat in the wild?


Lettuce is fine. My Apple snails love Spinach. I feed them celery and
carrot too. (I'm convinced that carrot does wonders for their shell colour).
