I have a tank of 4 piranhas and i was woundering if the plants i got from petsmart might have snail egg's and i also have a snail and i am woundering if it would lay egg's? I wouldnt mind having more snails, but is having snail eggs bad for the fish or tank? Because i am always hearing you have to wash out your plants so you can get the eggs of snails out, and that it isnt good. What is wrong with snail egg's?

The problem is not the eggs it's what comes out of the eggs. Snails can literally take over a tank. The old addage of "multiplying like rabbits" should have actually been "multiplying like snails", rabbits don't even come close.

We have a huge snail problem in our tank, as 1 snail has produced over 120 new lil ones.

If you have additional snails u don't want, see if your pet shop will take some , or consider getting some clown loaches as they find the young baby snails an "additional" food source.
