today i noticed a few snails have popped up in my planted tank. the only way i can think that they got in there were the plants i got but they've been in there for about 3 weeks. i dont really mind them i just dont want a tank over run with them. i've only seen about 5 so far. is there a good way to eliminate them or should i just see what happens with them?

don't overfeed and keeping the tank tidy and clean should either keep the snail population in check or maybe even eliminate them alltogether. snails can be pretty beneficial IMO.

IF they get to out of whack, a couple of clown loaches will clear it right up. I had a tank with too many snails. I added the loaches and now the snails are gone.
