I've seen snail eggs on the glass many times but it never amounts to anything.
With a lot of my LR in a holding tub right now, I've just been leaving it covered, heated and water moving. I peeked in today and found a very cute little trochus, along with several other much tinier snails (not sure of their ID, maybe baby Margarita?). I thought it was pretty darn cool.

Yep my banded trochus have bred twice just got rid of the last of the babies hoping it will prompt them to spawn again! Got to love this hobby....that smaller one you are looking at almost looks like a collinista snail....I had an explosion of them in my tank! Good detritus eaters apparently.
 
Wow congrats!

I've never seen any hatch in my tank.
