Snail invasion

[IndyReefMan]

My display tank is over run with baby snails. I mean, there are hundreds of them everywhere. They are very small-- about 1mm in diameter. I'm not sure what species they are, but they are white and the shells look similar to that of a turbo. Any ideas for a predatory fish that might eat them? I'd really like to thin them out and manual removal is out of the question... I've already tried that and I'm fighting a losing battle. I was thinking maybe a six-line wrasse? Any ideas?

I have the same thing. I never really noticed them bothering anything but algae.

They don't bother anything in the tank, but it's getting a little old seeing 300 of them on the front glass every morning. Any other ideas?

Many wrasse will eat snails. If you get a smaller variety it may not be able to eat the larger snails that you may want around.
