Take the snail out if you want, if you can see one then you probably have a few more as well. Snails only become a problem if they breed out of control, this is caused by overfeedig your fish. Just keep an eye out for them. If you want to get rid of them all, sink a piece of lettuce under a stone & leave it over night. In the morning take it out as it will be covered with snails.
