snails vs angelfish wigglers

[jackel]

hii after like 5 tries my angelfish finally have sum hatched newborn wigglers. The problem i have snails in the tank, will the snails eat the wigglers or just the unhatched eggs? I keep knocking the snails off the plant in doing so i think im stressing out my new mom & dad angelfish. Should i just let them be or continue knocking them off? still new at this but learning every day..
Thank you in advance

I don't think most snails will eat the fry, I only have a couple of nerites but they have never gone after the wigglers. My angel parents would destroy any snail that made a move to eat the eggs or the fry.

Snails won't eat live "wigglers".

I’ve never heard of it happening. Adult Angelfish are good parents. They’ll pick off any snails that wander too close.

Keep the lights on, dimmer at night but so the parents can see. Any snail that risks knocking the wrigglers out of the group will be handled by the parents.
