I keep zebra nerites and some ramshorn snails in my planted tank without problems.

Definitely nerite snails, they're the best. They're awesome looking, won't eat your plants and if you get enough of them they'll keep your tank spotless.

I have 3 cherry apple snails in my 38 gal tank, they are great! Haven't seen a problem with eating the plants and are ver active. The only thing is that I've had them about 8 weeks and they have double in size.
