Hi Angela! You may not need to lower your hardness unless it is absolutely horrendous, danios are not all that particular. The snails are probably pond snails come in with the plants or even with the water. They don't do any particular harm, but they do breed, so you can quickly find yourself overrun- you may want to get rid of them now. The brown stuff is probably brown algae, common in new tanks.

Oh, and could you take the caps off please? Makes it much harder to read, and it is considered the internet equivalent of shouting.

How cold is the room? If the room is centrally heated, it may not make that much difference. You could try wrapping a blanket round the tank to keep heat in if the room is chilly, maybe also keep the tank lights on for now.
