Has anyone had luck with a specific fish to rid your reef of vermitid snails?

Can you keep snails in your tank? If so, I recall that Bumblebee Snails are the go to for getting rid of vermitid snails, but I don’t know of any specific fish.

I added about 20 bumblebee snails to my tank. I'm not sure if they're dealing with them or not. In theory they're supposed to over time.
