Re: land snail shell
I've heard that those snail shells have too narrow openings and would be horribly uncomfortable to a hermie due to the lack of elongated coil of the shell where the hermies stick their abdomens.

Re: land snail shell
Garden snail shells tend to be very fragile and break easily, so I avoid them. They aren't rigid like sea snail shells, which are able to sustain high water pressures at the ocean floor.
