If it's still tight up in its shell, I mean no flesh is showing, and the operculum is all you see, then it's still alive ( it takes muscle tension to stay this way) if not I would take it out and poke it a few times and see if it retracts further, if not smell it if it stinks real bad, it's dead.

What do snails need to get out their shells?
The only way I know of is to strip down the tank, sterilise everything and replace everything that can not be sterilised. A method of keeping snails under control is to have Clown Loaches or Puffer fish in the tank. They will seek out and eat the snails.

Why does a hermit crab live in a snail shell?
A: Like turtles, snails are attached to their shells. They cannot leave their shells and live. If the body is out of the shell totally, the snail is dead. A few people have sworn their snail was alive, out of the shell, driving around. It must have been the current in the tank making their body appear to move. Snails cannot live out of their shells.
If your snail has been in its shell for a few days what is the matter with it?
Are you in a climate which is cool at this time of year? If so, your snail could be hibernating. Otherwise, look up a local snail farm and give them a phone call before you try disturbing your snail. Your local museum should also be able to help, or you can go to one of the comprehensive sites on the net; try this one: http://www.efarmspro.com/snailfarming.php
Does a snail die if it's shell gets cut off?
Well see i just found a snail today somewhat shut in my window. i wasn't sure if he/she would make it but i still put it in a secure area, ( like a plastic container of some sort and somewhat big) and put rocks to eat for it's shell nd leaves for food too. so it really depends. if it's hole shail came off, either kill it fr fast non painful death or keep it very very protected until it can grow it back.
Where is the snail on pages 14-15 of the I Spy Extreme Challenger book We see the shell on the right side above the rabbit ear but we don't think that is a snail.?
The snail on pages 14-15 of the I Spy Extreme Challenger book is located near the top middle of the page, slightly to the right of the center. Its shell is partially hidden behind a plant, but you can see part of its body extending out. It may be a bit tricky to spot at first glance.
