hi, im kinda stressed out because lately ive been noticing alot of tiny tiny snails all over my tank, i dnot know if they are good or bad, but i kinda want to get rid of them, is there a type of fish that eats them?
 
Ricky - the tiny snails you are referring to sound like they could be Collonista snails. Usually they are referred to as tiny/baby turbos (even though they stay small), and can appear in large populations. Do they look like this at all? Collonista sp.. Do you see them mostly at night? If so, then they are good grazers, and I would recommend you to leave them. Their population will wax and wane depending on their food source.
