The problem I have with using Loaches or any other fish to get rid of pests is the obvious, when the pests are gone you have to do something with the loaches. Unless you keep loaches which I don't, you have to buy the loaches, Quarantine them before putting them in the tank, move them to the tank with the snail problem and wait until they kill all the snails and then move them to another tank or get rid of them. It seems like too much work to me just to get rid of a bunch on unwelcome snails.
