if your keeping discus in soft water with a low ph that can lead to damage to the snails shell.i keep my discus in hard water with high ph so it depends on your water.

Yes a high Ph is no good with snails. There shells become weak, very thin and transparent.
Also if you've got a planted tank Tracey they might eat some of your plants. I can't confirm that thou.
