I'm assuming they're eggs but not sure for what or if that's even the case?

Dove snail egg cases (Columbellidae sp.). These small, beneficial snails rarely hitchhike into aquariums, are good algae eaters (their small size allows them to access areas larger snails cannot), and reproduce quickly. These are often misidentified as Maculastrombus maculatus (once Strombus maculatus).

Ah nice, thank you I do have a load of those snails in there too but didn't realise they were dove snails. That's cool, they hitchhiked in to mine though lol
