I have a snail that has been on a powerhead ever since I got it. I need to take the PH out and clean it --- How do I get the snail to let go without hurting it?

Run a fingernail under it, as tightly as you can to the powerhead it's lodged on until it lets go. That or a bit of ice rubbed on its foot should make it recoil.
