What Snails Can You Keep With Cichlids?

What snails are safe to keep with cichlids?

I keep a few Apple and lots of Malaysian Trumpet snails in my community tank. They keep the sand bottom spotless and also eat any leftover veg which I feed to mollies and baby BN.
I'd like to keep snails in my cichlid tank (convicts and jewels)#16##### well to eat up the pleco's leftover veg and keep tank clean. Will cichlids eat Apple and MT snails? Put a large Apple snail in with the jewels when they were fry and had to take snail out quickly as they were bashing it against tank bottom.

Ive never been able to keep apple snails alive in with cichlids, particuarly large aggressive cichlids, they dont normally eat them, but they do seem to enjoy playing with them and eventually killing them!

Never kept the cichlids your talking about though, but I would assume they would be the same. MTS may well be ok as they stay under the substrate enough to survive.
