Nice ... but what happens when the power goes out. IS the sump lower than the tank?

If the snail attacks you again, don't run, that just sends them into a frenzy. You have to slowly back away, being sure not to make eye contact.
Nice experiment btw, I want to play with this stuff, but have the sump underneath so I can have the stealth look in the main tank...
