Contrary to what seems to be a common opinion, I find snails living inside
of my canister filter to be beneficial.
The first time I noticed snails in the filter was when I did a regular
cleaning maintenance and was surprised
that the foam meadia doesn't have a usual amount of dirt in it. Even
squezing and flushing it under the stream of water didn't produce any
visible dirt. The foam media stays very clean. I don't have to do nearly as
much cleaning as I used to.

Do they have babies in the filter? Do they come from the filter out to your
aquarium?
