What are your inhabitants in this tank?

 

[tamanning]

Oh wow where do I start?
Around 70 cerith snails or at least I think so
close to 50 small nasserius snails
two large turbo snails .
several blue legged hermit crabs
two emerald crabs
one coral beauty
one yellow tang
two 4 stripe damsels
one blue devil
two clownfish
two other damsels of indeterminate genus
three types of mushroom corals
three types of stylopora
one montipora digitada
one monipora capricornus
utter chaos
blood sucker
green over purple hammer
purple over green hammer
hulk lepto
kenya tree
there are two more plating corals that I'm not sure the names of.
one small bubble tip anemone
purple paly
green paly
there are several types of worms in my deep sand bed and every type of pod I could find as well as brine shrimp in my sump.
I think I have at least most of the inhabitants listed there may be some unaccounted for as I pick up rocks from the beach and put them in my sump on occasion

Well than more than likely it’s something you picked up from the beach. Be very careful what you take as a lot of this stuff had micro plastic and is very deadly to marine life

sorry about the color i took the picture in the morning shortly after my blues come on.
What I'm asking about is a circular clutch of black eggs on a rock. Ive been doing searches for the types of snails I have and not been successful in finding any that lay eggs in that manner. The eggs are unguarded so No help from that end. I'm kind of at a loss. The tank is close to ten years old and in that time never had a water change. I dose and top off. I run a heater to maintain temp at 79. anyway any help you could offer would be nice.

Looks so much like tunicates but again- blue light. Will look on my large screen when I get home
