I have 3 snails mystery snails or nerite I think a mix of both, they laid eggs and now I have a mass amount of baby snails in my tank that I need to get rid of. I have two honey Gouramis but they aren’t seeming to do the trick. What can I do to get rid of the snail babies?
How to get to get rid of snails

They won't be nerite snails because they need brackish/ salt water for the larvae to live in.
If they are Mystery/ Apple snails, they lay clusters of pink/ white eggs out of the water, usually on the underside of the coverglass. You can grow these up and sell/ trade them to most pet shops.
If the eggs were a clear jelly with small dots in, and laid in water on plants, they are either pond snails or Ramshorn snails. A picture will help us identify them. If they are pond snails, squash them with your finger.

Okay so I watched one of my snails lay the eggs just randomly all over the tank, it sounds weird but like I watched them come out of the snail a few times and here are what the baby snails look like
Here are my two snails doing what I’m thinking is mating
