Ur temp may be a little high, what kind of snails? that will come into play.

my water was that warm if not warmer because she has a bigger tank then mine and 3 nights in a row my snails layed eggs.

Yea, 85 is the MAX temp for mystery snails. so lowering some could help. Its also a possiblility theyre all one sex, how many do you have? If you have quite a few then id just be patient. You can also buy a copper just just to be safe, sometimes copper wont actually kill the snails if its a small amount but it will surely not make them want to make you some little snails. Good luck
