        Due to their plant-based diet, I can imagine that snails fart a lot.

        tube worms don’t have digestive systems of their own. it is possible they don’t fart. The bacteria they symbiose with might fart on their behalf though.

          There are many tube worms that do have digestive tracts, but I assume you are talking about chemosymbiotic tube worms that are found in methane seeps and hydrothermal vents. These guys essentially live in farts (hydrogen sulfide, methane), which their symbionts use for chemosynthesis.
