Snail Breeding

Has anyone ever tried breeding snails? I am thinking about setting up a tank to breed snails so I would be interested to hear about other peoples experience with this.
 
limpets breed like crazy in my sea horse tank. i got 23 babies in a 10 gallon. theres not much to it just put them in and let them do there thing.
 
What would you need them for?

I have the small Euplica snails in my tank. I received 2 adults from a friend shortly after setting up the tank; at first, they literally covered the tank walls with eggs, now I have many little ones, and they seem to establish a halfway stable population (less eggs on the tank walls).

Recently I received some Stomatellas with 2 frags, this was perhaps 3 weeks ago, and I see the first babies already.
 
I was looking at breeding clean up crews, stuff like cerith, nerite, turbos and nesseris. I don't have any specific breed in mind over others though. In my main tank we have eggs all the time but with all the fish they never seem to live so I was thinking about setting up a tank specifically to breed them.
