Most do just fine without, because they breath from the surface.
Yes, snails do not require a filter for their habitat as they are able to survive in a variety of water conditions. However, having a filter can help maintain water quality and reduce the need for frequent water changes in their tank.
Not necessarily. Water snails can survive without pumps in aquariums as long as the water is clean, oxygenated, and has proper circulation. However, in closed systems or larger aquariums, a pump or filter can help maintain water quality and oxygen levels, benefiting the snails' health.
Freshwater snails do not need a filter, but they prefer it. The more water movement, the cleaner they/their shell stays. I have 3 mystery snails in a 10 gallon and 2.5 gallon tank with a filter and they're doing very well, but I also have 5 baby mystery snails in an ice cream pail until they fully mature. They're doing well, too.

Yes, snails can survive out of water for a period of time, but they need a moist environment to prevent dehydration.
In the aquarium were water, weed, sunfish, snails, and a neon fish.
Garden snails do not drink salt water, but they will drink water. Garden snails will drink any water that crosses their path. Snails can not drink salt water because it dries out and shrivels up their skin.
Aquatic snails cannot survive outside of water for extended periods of time. They need water to breathe and move properly.
