See the squiggly white stuff on the glass in the back of these pics? What is it and is it bad for my tank? My tank is a year and a half new and I’ve not seen this before now.
Snail eggs, once hatched there will be hundreds on the glass. I’ve cropped a photo I took of the aftermath of these (obv. the photo not being great). I scrape them off glass now anytime I see it. Hoping to get it gone prior to the hatching.

Welcome! Glad you joined. Not clownfish eggs, but yes depending how you are feeding your two year old clowns it could be possible for them to begin breeding (but eggs look very different from that). Just because it is possible doesn't mean they are or even will... and if the female decides one day there is something she doesn't like about the male... well, sometimes breeding is not always fun. If they are successful, it can be free fish food for your other fish... just as giving birth is very hard on human women, its hard on your fish as well. Making sure they have vitamins, oils, variety and quality foods is all important - I culture live black worms and live pods for my fish, in addition to an exhaustive frozen food selection.
Have you considered starting your build thread? I found its a great place to document my tank's evolution for myself. I started tank first then joined, so I'm still finding myself going back collecting pictures & updating historically as well as current state. Once you create your first post in your thread and link it to your account, they will give you build badge (look left, under my ID)

Welcome. Snail eggs. They will not harm anything.
