Check out this site and see if you can identify what kind you have.
What and how much are you feeding? The cause of your snail out break is likely

] Question on snails and loaches
Hi--
We have a 125 gallon freshwater tank with a sand bottom. We have I believe
what are trumpet snails. The have long almost V shaped shells, mostly white
in color with light brown markings and they are nocturnal. At first, I
didn't mind the snails because I thought they were good to have them down
into the sand and eating any extra food, but, they are reaching far too many
in the tank.
We have 3 horse face loaches in the tank that I just LOVE, but, have read
that Yoyoloaches will help to eat some of the snails and keep their
populations in check. I am looking for the pro's and con's of adding yoyo
loaches to the tank.
I want to ensure that the Yoyoloach and the clown loaches can live together
in peace. The fish in the tank range from a large male Frontosa to a
variety of male African Cichlids and Peacocks.
Thank you for any advice!!!
