Anyone ever used snails as clean up crew in a container where you're raising cory fry? Have seen it suggested in a few places, so I'm tempted to throw some of the Malaysian Trumpet snails I have in there with them, but I'm also a little wary in case they hurt the fry in some way!

If they help to keep the tub clean, that would be great, but I'll be cleaning the tub and water changing daily anyway, worth risking adding the snails anyway?
 
Might make more a mess than they clean up. Wouldn’t really recommend it.

The snails in my 29g tank poop a ton. Probably don’t want all that excess ammonia in with fry. Just a thought. ;)
