Snails committing suicide daily.

My wife and I are on hourly suicides watch for the snails in our tank. My question is does this happend to everybody? I can't be the only one. I have to flip over snails all day long. Are all snails this dumb?

My nerites do not commit suicied but they must not like my tank, they are always looking to leave the nest. Every morning I find a few patroling the living room. I've stepped on a couple already. My wife is freaked out by the Nerites. Im actually getting rid of them.

If this is something that has happened recently after having turbos for a while I'd just like to ask if you've been raising the magnesium level recently. Turbo's don't react well to a rise in magnesium and I noticed them falling off the glass much more when I raised mine to combat a bryopsis problem.
