how far have you ever had a snail come out of the water???  I swear this one snail is peeking over the side starring at me on the computer.  Is this a sign of water conditions or curiosity?

On top of the trim, and then got fried when the 400w MH's kicked on.

Let's just say that I've found several over the past year a good couple of feet away from the tank.  I found one stuck on a school notebook one time...that was really lovely.  Most of the time they're nerite snails, which I've heard like to spend some time on the edge of water.  Keep an eye on 'em.  They're all suicidal between letting crabs kill them, not turning themselves over, or just climbing into fresh air.   ::)
