To the person with the snail issues:

botia type fish (clown loach) love snails, for manual removal float a 
piece of lettuce overnight and in the morning it will likely be covered 
with them, just scoop them out, also mine tend to put their eggs on the 
floating plants if given the option so I put ones with big leaves in 
each tank and pull them out periodically and trim off the leaves with 
the eggs on them. Snails are a real pain. I know other fish eat them but 
can't remember which. Some ornery individual bettas and some of my 
killies have attacked and killed them, too.
Good luck! I hate it when snails get out of control.
