Anyone have trouble w/ snails bothering their soft corals

I have about 5 snails in my 30 gallon tank.. and one of them knocked over my xenia.. I like to keep them in there to keep the algae down.. should I just take them to the LFS and trade them back in or what.... no my xenia is all withdrawn in..

Snails will do that....they will knock over anything that isn't nailed down. My best advice to get a two-part epoxy and stick down your xenia rock.
