Can snails starve out shrimp/oto's?

You can always supplement your otos and shrimp with algae wafers. Usually shrimp and otos can get some before it's covered by snails.

I think the increase in the bioload would be more of a concern with a snail population explosion though.....

Pond snails multiply too quickly. What will keep them in check? I've seen my ottos eat bloodworms as well as the shrimp.

Doh! Algae wafers. I wasn't thinking

I think the lack of algae will do the trick. Snails are more entertaining than algae and easier to physically remove.
