Ramshorn snail are the best for planted tanks. I keep them in my tank all the time. Mine never really took over the tank, but I barely see them when the lights are on. They come out when the lights are off the most. I don't over feed my tank, so that's probably why their numbers are contained. Also, my fish will eat anything in my tank including eggs.

Snails do need water change let's say after a few weeks. The water becomes too acidic for their shells; this is off course a tank (small one) with a filter. Larger tanks can go for months but the water becomes too smelly. If the tank has some alkalinity you will need to do some water changes regardless. I haven't had experience with caridina yet but the water conditions seem more ideal with snails, just a tiny bit.

That's why they come on plants these people sell you lol try to buy snail free plants only put in snails you want ! Trumpet snails are ok I like them !

You need to remove your snails. Snails and shrimp eat the same food. Snails out compete shrimp for food and space. Snails will eat newborn shrimp. Snails add more bioload in the tank and thus adversely effect water quality.
