my horseface loaches eat sinking carnivore pellets, flake food, and frozen food like all my other loaches; the easier it gets to the very bottom of the tank, the more likely they'll get the chance to eat it before someone else does. mine are quite shy in general, so you may rarely see them eat, but they aren't picky. I have never seen mine each snails, but then again they have always lived with much more boisterous loaches that probably got to all of the snails before they did.

I feed mine high quality flake food, wich they seen to love.

I have never seen them eat snails, however I do keep them with botia, so there are no snails to begin with :)
