What snails?
I generally point out these links:
The Grazing Snails, Part I - Turbo, Trochus, Astraea, and Kin (http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2004-05/rs/index.htm)
The Grazing Snails, Part II - Abalones, Limpets and Nerites (http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2004-06/rs/index.htm)
The Grazing Snails, Part III - Conchs, Ceriths, Cowries, and Columbellids (http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2004-07/rs/index.htm)

as I do now. :)
Read them and see what species will "control" whathaveyou.
