Are you sure the snail is alive? They usually don't bother live snails, but maybe they need protein. Try feeding them some frozen brine shrimp. Most pet shops have it. Use just a small amount, and thaw it in a clean container of aquarium water before feeding.

Platies like algae wafers once in a while, but they also need protein, which brine shrimp and other frozen foods have in abundance.
