Found something new in the DT that looked like it might be alive and not just an unusual pile of rubble. Sorry for the poor photos, but it’s under a rock and I can’t get a good focus on it. Looks like dozens of little round balls. Only thing I could think of was maybe snail eggs. I added cerith and red banded torches snails two weeks ago. Am I already getting off spring?

Pics very blue and fuzzy to confirm but may be such
 
Look similar to my cerith eggs that are constantly on my glass. They never produce baby ceriths. I believe they get eaten. My trochus snails are constantly replenishing themselves but eggs are fertilized in the water column.
