Are these eggs? They are everywhere!
I noticed these things in and on my tank today. Can anyone identify them?
On the wall Snails

They don't look like flat worms to me, that much is for sure. It is weird that they are mostly on snails though. None of the flat worms that I have ever had look like that, plus they are not that flat looking, they look more roundish. Not sure what they are, probably not snail eggs though.

I am certainly one to admit I've been wrong before so I hope someone els chimes in.. I'm quite curious myself.
Did they occur over night? over a couple days? any movement?

Snail eggs. Perhaps a nerite.

I have not noticed them before. I check my tank out every day but I could have missed them. They seem to be stationary. I have looked closer and found more on the live rock but none on any fish or coarls.

Snail eggs - if so does anyone need any snails.

let them hatch, they will be fine in there, and probably would die in transit if you tried to get rid of them. If they hatch and grow up it won't hurt to have a few extra snails, you could always trade them once they grew up.

I have the same things!! They are hard. I've never seen any baby snails in my tank though. I too am curious about them. I gave up on worrying about them.

Snails are good, flat worms are bad. I will keep everyone posted.

Don't look like FW at all. Im thinking they are eggs of some type as I don't want to say they are snail or any other type of egg. But if you looks at some of the pic. you can see some shape that look like "hatched eggs" there is also one that only has the outter ring left (1 pic the bottom batch of "egg" on the top). There some some that look like emypty clear case also.

I thought it was very interesting to find this thread as I have in the past few days found the same thing in my tank and just haven't had the time or energy to take pics for clarification. I am real interested to see what these are. I am going to post the link in my club forum also since you were so nice to have taken pics.

nerite (or similar) snail eggs for sure... my nerites leave identical eggs EVERYWHERE as well.
