What kind of snails & why or why not.....

True, he may well end up with more trumpets than his fish can eat! Lol

Thanks everyone! Having them gobbled up by my fish or having too many are definitely my primary concerns. If there were too many snails, they can go in my Damba tank, they'd have a field day. Trumpets = MTS / Malaysian Trumpet Snails, Melanoides tuberculata?

Malaysian trumpet = MTS also an assassin snail can clean them up pretty well

She keeps cichlids, she won't be needing something to take care of trumpet snails.

And yah, you have the right latin on them.

That's true, wasn't sure if the cichlids would get sick of the snails eventually or not, probably not lol

Yes ~ my fish would be the only assassins required for snails. Definitely don't want to put MTS in the tank and have them become an immediate snack. The Geos are probably my biggest concern, with their constant sifting.
