There are many vermetid snails in my tank and I heard Bumblebee snails work to kill them. 1. Will it actually work? 2. I found a website callled https://www.reefs4less.com/product/bumble-bee-snail/ and I am not sure about its credibility, anyone buy things from this company? The other option is live aquaria but they are selling 5 at once but I only want 1.3. Can I keep one by itself or how many does there need to be? Also an estimated percentage would be helpful on my first question, for example "I got 5 snails and only one of them ate the vermetids." That would be much more helpful than saying "Most bumblebees won't eat vermetids." Thank you very much appreciated!

None of mine ate them from what I could see.

It is alleged but have not seen any confirmation of them eating them. I suggest manual removal in which YOU KNOW they are eliminated.
