Since no one had any suggestions about how to get my nem off the back glass of the tank, I did it on my own and would like to offer help to anyone else that is in the same situation.
My nem got huge and began stinging the mushrooms that were to close to it. I was unable to move them as they were already up against the front of the aquarium. My nem had attached itself to the back glass and fortunately it was on coraline algae too. I used as plastic grease remover from my kitchen supplies, it was similar to the blue plastic algae scraper I use on the coraline algae in the aquarium so I think you could use one of those too. I slowly scrapped the nem off the glass, putting all the pressure on the glass, not towards the nem's foot. It didn't take very long and the nem was off and into a bag and on the way to the LFS for a trade. The scraper worked really well and the nem's foot was not damaged at all. It took a while to figure out what to do but I'm glad it's gone.
