My black mystery snail has been in his shell floating aroudn teh top of the tank... i know its cuz he filled himself with air but its been a day and he hasnt let the air out in order to sinnk!!!

have you smelled him yet? try taking him out and giving him a whiff. if he doesn't smell like anything bad then you're ok. if you smell a foul nasty as all $%^ smell, then unfortunately you're little guy is passing away. Have you checked your water params? Is there a reason that he would be dead or dying? Do you feed him foods or just let him eat the algae on the tank?
