Will it work to scoop up the snails from the surface of the sand on the bottom of the tank?

It’s a lot of work. A small aquarium you may be able to keep up. My 125 no way. If you have large fish get a comet goldfish, it will eat most snails over nite. Smaller fish get Pea puffers. Takes all the snails out.

Does this work on very tiny baby bladder snails?

Yes! It worked perfectly on the tiny baby Malaysian trumpet snails I had so I’m sure it would work on them to. It really only works for the ones on the glass though.

Does it harm the snails? I don’t wanna kill them, just relocate

No, not if you’re careful. If you scrape hard, you may squish a tiny snail, but the larger ones just drop in.

Does this work on removing limpets from the glass?

I only used this on the pesty small pond snails. They are easy to remove. This catcher also can catch baby guppies, accidentally . This is mainly used to clean snails off the glass. Limpets are mostly attached to rocks so they will be hard to get rid of. Take your chances.
