There are Spiorbids on it and vermitted snails on it how would I remove them or treat it.

I hand remove them by scraping off with fingernail or toothpick. You can glue some as well. If you have the tank size, a yellow or melanarus wrasse are options to reduce populations.

Do not use fingernail as any calcium can stab you under fingernail (ouch). I recommend paring knife or plastic scraper or even edge of old credit card in a container of tank water ( do this outside of tank)
