What kills freshwater snails?
There are many chemicals that will kill freshwater snails but they will also kill fish and some will kill plants too. The best way I have found to remove snails is to have a few Clown loaches (Botia macracantha) or a couple of freshwater Puffer fish to kill and eat them.
