Sometimes turtles are found with an overly mossy/algae covered shell. Turtles in this condition are called “floaters.” This is because when turtles are struggling to regulate buoyancy and properly dive, algae will begin to grow on their carapace indicating something is wrong.

Having a bit of algae on snails’ shells is usually no big deal, it’s mostly just a visual thing.
