Be wary of Malaysian trumpet snails, their shells are too hard. Ramshorn and pond are the best choices.

What kind of snail do you have? Some Malaysian trumpet snails have too thick of shells for puffers to chomp through. Ninja'd by PinkFloydPuffer on this.
Other than that, they'll eat anything. It's good to give them snails that are small enough that they can't get at the soft parts without biting through the shell. The shells are good for them.

Little brown guys with a kind of oblong shell? Those would be common pond snails.
They're rarely added to a tank on purpose, and usually hitchhike on a plant.
