Tank Safe for Mystery Snails?

[GoofyGarra]

In January of this year i had a hydra problem spreading throughout my tanks, i moved out my susceptible snails and dosed NoPlanaria which took care of the Hydra problem quite nicely.

However now 4 months later i am really missing having a Mystery snail in my tank. I am wondering if it would be safe to add them back in or if the NoPlanaria would still kill them?

I have noticed that Limpets have started appearing in my tank now which by my research NoPlanaria kills, so maybe i could use those as an indicator species?

Thoughts, Comments, Concerns?

The limpet's are a good sign.  I personally would do a couple of water changes and test water parameters before adding the mystery snails. @GoofyGarra
