Default Hypo and inverts

I thought that snails couldn't take hypo?

I'm battling ick in one of my tanks - tried quick cure - no results - so I decided to go hypo. I grabbed what snails I could find and put them in another tank and lowered the spg to 1.010 over the period of a day and a half. Today is the 3rd full day at this level and I still am plucking snails out.
I know my measurement is correct - it's a new refractometer.

Here I am worrying about the snails and my lion, hogfish, trigger and grouper are all just laying around close to lifeless.
