i have 2 mystery snails, one doesnt look like its doing to well, so im going to be removing it later today. But i was wondering, should i start putting some lettuce leafs into my tank for them(and my corys) to give them something else to eat besides algae wafers? 
 
You have to blanch the vegetables first, I know the snail will most likely munch on it, not too sure about the corys. But aren't those the same snails that have been in the high ammonia and/or nitrite levels you've discussed before? They might be sick from that, how are your parameters at the moment..?
 
they were but i put them in a medical tank (5gal ank) for a couple days then put them in a different (20) gal tank.

and how would i blanch the veggies

How do you know its not doing well?

 I feed all my bottom feeders the same
 
Algae wafers, small, New Life Spectrum pellets, Hikari Carnivore pellets, Veggie pellets, small sinking shrimp pellets. They love their frozen blood worms brine shrimp Fresh crushed snails and snail Jello that I make.
 
 
I only blanch veg for my 2 snails. 
 
they are what looks like bloating(or trying to attach their muscle to the ground) and one of their trap doors from their shells seems to have vanished
