    I was cleaning the algae off my glass tonight and noticed these tiny little white things on my glass. They are little round swirls, and a couple of them have something coming out of the end, it was very hard to see because they are so tiny. As I was looking around i noticed at least 20 of them. What in the world are they?? Sorry i cant get a great picture but they are incrediblly small

    I used to have them all over my back wall, but they all just disappeared. No idea where they came from or why they went away I also had the vermetid snails too they produced the stringy stuff where the little white ones never did.
