The only snails that my loaches did not eliminate from my 55 are these ramshorns. I've only seen a few of them, and the largest is under half an inch in diameter. So... is this a good ramshorn, or a bad ramshorn? (I assume I'm right about it being a ramshorn.)

Thanks! I don't mind if they breed, since the loaches will probably "appreciate" the babies. I think these bigger snails may be a bit big for the juvenile loaches to tackle (at least that's my theory. Or maybe they taste bad...)
