how to get rid of snails?

Hi, I am new to this forum and would like to give my advice. I have a 20 gal long with two clown loaches, two corycats and a few guppies (wich are going to new homes as soon as they are big enough) I also gava a ten gallon with ghost shrimp, two albino corycats and ten neons. I have a ongoing pond snail population that I have battled for months. Now I take a piece of fresh carrot and put it in my ten gallon. Bo morning I have collected a bunch of snails and I give them to my loaches as nummies. Takes care of the snails and I don't feel so guilty as my loaches make good use of them,.
