Question Baby Giant African Land Snail

Hi guys

i've recently ended up with one of these little guys after a work friend took on four not realising how large they would get.

I'm not used to keeping them and would appreciate any advice.

At the minute he's in one of those plastic fish tanks with the vents on the top. He's on a substrate of soil, he has a cuttle fish and i've been feeding him apple and lettuce. I'm making sure i spray him everyday, as i'm scared to bath him as he's so tiny.

Is there anything else i need to be doing?

Thanks

I'm guessing he won't stay so tiny for too long
