   @A new day @Reedfish
   
   Thanks so much for the kind words
   
   Is planaria bad for the tank? Will they harm my fish once I introduce them to the tank? Iv read that these are parasites of some sort?
   
   The snails look like pond snails , those round ones , there are just to many . Im sure my Clowns will have a feast once I put them back in .
   But I do need to find a way to get them out , or at least reduce the population .

   Not really harmful. But I wouldn't want them in a tank with small fry.
   Can be a bit unsightly.
   
   I have found Corry catfish deal with an infestation quite quickly

   Yes in addition to what @Reedfish said, if you’re breeding shrimp then you’d want to get rid of planaria. Otherwise corys an in my experience guppies and endlers happily take care of them. Gouramis too.
   Tank looks great!
