    [PleAsE dont judge me, I didnt clean the glass for two days :-/.]

    I came home tonight, vowing to clean the glass, when I found this. What do you think it is? I mean EGGS of course...but any ideas what it could be? The fish dont seem interested in it at all. As you can see from the lip marks from our algae blenny, they are tiny. Thanks to all in advance.

    I agree...looks like snail eggs. I have heard many say that they will not hatch out, however I have a bunch of baby snails in my tank so I would leave them be

    So, its a good thing right? I hope they hatch out. We could use them. CUC's are so expensive. I'm gonna have to go take a really close look.

    Seems good to me. Could always sell/donate if you have too many. What kind of snails do you have in your tank?
