This is can be a hard process. You will need to remove the mother snail. Take the father snail and put him in a separate tank; he could eat the eggs when the are secluded in a smaller spot. Use a fish net to put the eggs with the mother. Be careful! Clean out the tank as quickly as possible. Then slowly do the same process. I recommend though that if you already haven't, move the father to a separate spot; I heard they can be like goldfish and eat their young.

How do you know when aquarium snails are breeding?
depending on the kind of snails you have you will be able to find their eggs. APple snails and mystery snails will lay their eggs in big clusters just above the waterline. If you don't want to have more snails you can just remove the clusters of eggs. All other snails breed like crazy. You will be able to see their eggs on the glass or on ornaments or plants in your aquarium. They are more difficult to control. The eggs will appear to be a clear sort of film.

Well right when the female lays the eggs you have to get them and throw them out. So the male can't fertilize them.
