Mystery snails eating Repens "?"

Does anyone else have an issue with their snails eating their S.Repens every time I turn around there’s more eaten off of an area. I know it’s not the loaches or the Cory’s an definitely not the algae eaters. What can I do to prevent this from being a waste of money

Do you feed many greens? Try some blanched zucchini, some green beans and romaine.

Also if the plants aren't getting enough light they might degrade and entice the snails to snack to clean them up.
