what size tank? something may have been chasing or bugging him and making him want to jump out of the tank

the tank was a 20 gallon tall tank and he was always mean to other fish and the cory never bothered him it was just him and 2 snails

I read recently that fish that try to jump from the tank or go nuts in the tank are ususally in water they are trying to get out of. Are you do for water changes. Even clear water can be toxic and out of oxygen.
