so I have just been observing my tank and noticed a couple of tiny trochus snails on the rocks. Looked harder and found another 22! And that’s just the ones at front of rocks.
Anyone know the how likely these are to survive and grow or any advice on how to help the process?

Or am I likely to get over run with these now
 
wow congrats. I think as long as they are not being eaten should do fine.
 
They do successfully reproduce in our tank as long as you don't have anything that prey on small snails like certain wrasse. My Harlequin Tusk eat all the small snails. They reproduced in my tank also until I added this wrasse.
 
Same thing happened in my tank. Keep the alkalinity and calcium up for shell development and you should be fine.
