Nerite snail keep escaping....

Like the title says. Every morning I wake up to find 2-5 nerite snails on the outside wall or on my floor. I keep putting them back in the tank and they are ok. I have secured everything around the tank to keep them in but not helping. They are climbing up my HOB filter and out. Is this normal?

Mine do it too sometimes. Lack of food probably so they go hunting.

So weird all most of them do is just sit at the top of the tank in a big bunch together. If they would move they would see there is plenty of food.

Mine do that too. Many a morning have I found my cats batting them around.

 

I've taken to buying them edible macros so they can snack away. Mine eat ulva and dirty rock alga with the hermit crab. And lay crud tons of eggs. They seem to be escaping/wandering less since I've started adding more things for them to eat.
