Question Mystery Snails ?!?!?!?

I have attempted this three times now with three different sizes of mystery snails.. How come I can't keep them alive in my goldfish tank ? All my water parameters are good. I use the API master kit. Someone please tell me.. I would like them in there to clean the glass and for decoration .

Gold fish will eat snails so its not a good combination.

It is recomended that you only keep Apple snails with Goldfish. As stated in the previous reply, goldfish will eat snails. I have 2 in my goldfish tank and they are doing quite well.
