IN MA 12G I HAVE OVER 20 SNAILS AND IN MA 120G CAN I GET THE PLECO OUT 4 A DAY PUT IT IN THE 12G AND WILL HE EAT THEM ALL
 
There's some species that will eat mussels, maybe they'd eat snails too. But generally, no.

if there's only 20, make a snail trap with some lettuce in a jar and catch what you can, and crunch the rest. If you start after them before they become a legion, you can wipe them out or keep them under control without adding fish or chemicals.
 
my plecs have never ate snails :( so i had to buy some zebra loaches who just love them :) but i have no snails left now lol all they do is hunt for some but nnot can be found
 
If you've got a large snail population you're overfeeding. How often are you feeding? If you're feeding daily, cut back to every other day.
