What is this?

[Oregon Grown Reef]

I've been finding quite a few of these popping up around the tank. At first I thought they were flatworms, but they don't move at all and have to be scraped off. Are they some kind of snail egg or other invert? Any and all help is appreciated.

I agree with this ^^^

Nerite they are and will likely not hatch as they often become food for occupants and also need cooler temps for hatching

Thank goodness. That's exactly what they are. I was worried it was some kind of pest. Thanks for the help!
