Hello, I’m interested in adding snails to my bioactive to eat slime but am wondering if they could present a problem to other inhabitants: a Brazilian rainbow boa, orange scaler. Isopods, and maybe some red worm.
What would anyone recommend?

I have never heard of snails eating slime; they do produce it, though. If you're looking for detritivores to clear up things like leaf mulch or decaying matter, try woodlice, rolypolies or springtails.
I'm not an expert. But I think the goal with a bioactive tank should be to create as close to the ecosystem that would be encountered in the wild as possible. If an animal wouldn't be in contact with it's potential roommates in the wild, it's probably not a great idea to introduce them in captivity. But, I really don't know much about bioactive tanks,so feel free to ignore me.
