Well, i placed him back on the substrate and he moved since then. I have no clue how long he was there or how. I walked by the tank on the way to the dinner table and noticed him bouncing around.

I might just be crazy but it would have been hilarious if you turned it on full and he shot up

Yeah...but there is a lid about 5 inches above that...

I think he may be trying to do the same trick again. He has crawled back to the filter and looks like he is about half on the sponge based on the angle of the shell.

He has almost reached the top of the sponge. Not sure if he attempting another ride, snacking, or both. I just know i got my popcorn ready for this show!

My horned could get down in there when they were little. I think they are all too big now.

I glanced at my bedroom tank the other day and saw the biggest ramshorn in the sponge filter tube. Umm, are you stuck dude?
When he was still there a bit later, I removed him. He was back there the next day. I told him he’s on his own lol! Guess there was some delicious algae on the airline tubing! And yes, he got out.

Usually my fish are kinda boring when i watch. Not the snails. All are like little fat tarzans. Though i did jist get an armhair bit by a betta because i moved a plant instead of give him food.
