Snails that do not fall over?

My cerith snails are on there back every two or three days. One of my turbos was on its back this past week. The only ones that have not fallen over are my Nassarius snails.

I had two red ringed snails they could not make it a whole day without being on there back.

I bought three trochus snails yesterday because the lfs I was at said they never fall over.

I'd hate for one to fall over where I can not see it or under a pile of rock I'd have to move.

So what snails do you have that do not fall over?

I picked up some star snails from reeftopia a while back, which are said to not get stuck on their backs... I have yet to need to rescue them, so they must be doing great at not falling over!
 
I haven't had to rescue any of the snails from my tank. Trochus, turbos, cerith, nerite. When your trochus are on their backs, does it look like they are trying to right themselves? Or are they just laying there?

One of the trochus has fallen over once, it looked like it was just laying there.
