Snails are good though, 10% hydrogen peroxide solution dip. Don’t dip mosses. If you want pure snail free plants use tissue cultures only.

No matter what you do (depending on how many plants you put in) you will get snails.

Many loaches will control the populations, shrimp and live blood worms can compete for the excess food the snails feed off that causes their population explosions.

Agree that snails are near impossible to avoid, I don’t mind them and I think they’re a good indicator if you are feeding too much or the right amount
