I am reading online that people only temperature acclimate their snails? Then there is some who drip acclimate? What do I do? Should I just drip acclimate them? The have been in bags for around 7 hours.

You can just temp acclimate with snails, if you wanna go the extra mile and drip acclimate them then go ahead it won't hurt. P.S. 7 hours is a ton of time to be in the bags temp acclimating :D
