Ah, hermit crabs and giant tritons have a fascinating relationship in the ocean. You see, hermit crabs often use empty shells for protection, and the giant tritons, well, they like to snack on these hermit crabs. It's all part of the circle of life in the beautiful underwater world, where each creature plays a unique role.
A shell provides protection and shelter for a hermit crab, which uses it as its home. The hermit crab carries the shell on its back and can move to a larger one as it grows. This symbiotic relationship benefits both the hermit crab and the shell.

What I know of that is hermit crabs will eat snails. However, hermit crabs will often use an empty shell of a sea snail.

the hermit crab attaches the anemone to its shell as protection from the big fish with the sharp teeth and octopuses and squids and you know what else is a hermitcrab YOUR MOTHERR:P
Snail shells are formed biologically as the snail grows up. Hermit crabs occupy empty shells and other containers, instead.
Hermit crabs are known to use empty snail shells as protection for their soft abdomens. They often inhabit shells left behind by snails, creating a symbiotic relationship where the hermit crab benefits from the snail shell and the snail is not negatively impacted.
