    I got a lot of of these tiny white flat egg shaped things scatter all over on my glass. Don't know what it is but if you look closely enough you can see a yellow spot in each one. It is not clustered up but scattered apart.

    nerites leave a single cluster every few inches. Mine never hatch though.
