I've had keyholes which will avidly lunch on snails, and recently a female cacatuoides who on breading turned into the total snail terminator - I didn't think I had any snails in the tank before I saw her 'drill' into the sand, chuck one out and beat it to a pulp. However, she was more keen on just killing them off, rather than eating them, so the dead ones had to be removed before they polluted the tank.
