Default Ramshorn snail

I am starting to see what looks like Ramshorn snail in my tank. They must have stole away on some of the plants I bought. Should I try to get rid of them or keep them?

keep them
sell them
trap and crush
or buy a assassin snail to eat them
loaches/puffers are not the way to go unless you have the suitable tank size, and species puffer tank.

My 3 Skunk loaches do just fine in a 10 gal tank, though these are VERY shy fish i almost never see them, and never all 3 at once. Within two weeks they eat every singal ramshorn snail in the tank, and there was easly 1000's small, med, large their gone. All the itsy bitsy Trumpet snails are gone, left all the med and large ones though.
