I have a 165 litre tank and I want a snail or more for something a little different to look at but I've no idea what kind.i don't think I've any stock that will harm them but this is what I've got

1 angelfish
1 Bol ram
1 guppy
2 blind cave tetra
2 pearl gourami
3 Julii Cory
5 neon tetra
6 skirt tetra
6 platy
 
Assassin snails, candy snails, nirite snails. They are great as cleanup crews. I have heard that assassin snails can eat candy snails though.
 
I don't have any live plants would that cause a problem with any?
 
mostly they eat algae, left over food and fish waste. So I don't think that not having live plants would matter. I wouldn't put snails in a tank that doesn't at least have some algae. But then again you could put algae wafers in to supplement their diet. Even my assassin snails eat the wafers.
