I would say minimum 3 in a tank. They will eat any snail smaller than
they are. They will get MUCH bigger than 4" - more like 8-10", but it
takes a long time for them to get that big - about 1" per year.

You will probably never see it - but they're interesting when they
come out in daylight. Good tank cleaners, but don't eat snails at
all, so far as I know.
