Can someone identify these guys?

Can anyone identify these white/gray circle things on the skeleton of my frogspawn? I noticed them a few weeks back and now I see them everywhere in my tank. They're even on a few of my CUC. My neighbor thinks they could a keyhole limpets, but i wanted to get other people's opinion. Thanks!

do you have nerite snails? could be their eggs, although i have never seen any of their eggs on corals or rock.

I did order some nerite snails when i got my CUC. They are all over the place even on some of my rocks.

check to see if the white spots can very easily peel off. if so, i am confident that it's nerite snail eggs.

They don't look like keyhole limpets. Are they stationary or do they move about?

Yes they are. I removed a couple from a frag not too long ago and they came off easily. If they are be nerite snale eggs, I'm guessing I better get used to seeing them around?

when you scrape them off they become a little snack for your fish! circle of life.
