Not sure what these are but looks like eggs of some type. No fish is Harding the and have never seen any fish in this front corner of my tank. Could it possibly be from the snails? This just showed up today.
Thanks

snail eggs do you happen to have any nassrius snails

Yes but what kind?

Just noticed the same on my glass this morning. Figured they were snail eggs, or perhaps urchin eggs? Have never had these eggs on my glass before, but did add a couple urchins a few months ago, which is led me to believe they are urchin eggs?

As far as I know urchins release eggs into the water. These look more like nassarius snail eggs.

I honestly don't know, thats why i asked.

I've had nassarius snails for years, and have never seen eggs like these. I have had the typical "whirl" of eggs from nassarius, just not this odd fan style. Another reason I thought they may have been urchin eggs. But upon further research, your right! Urchin release egg and sperm into the water.
