    I don't know what these are, they are ALL OVER my 55g. They are rubbery and firm to the touch but have a little give. They really like the acrylic overflow for my skimmer but i also see them on the rock. They did not come off with a gentle bristle brush.

    they are about an eighth of an inch long i think its a little big for snail eggs and there is no hard shell for limpets. Though either might be correct yet!

    They must be pretty stout...looks like the one is actually causing the silicone to disform. No idea what they are tho.
