plecosword · 06-27-2008, 02:13 AM

I just noticed white, smalish eggs on the back of my glass. Ill have pics by tomorrow maybe. Ideas?

Need pics in order to ID, but they could be anything from snail eggs to sponges to feather dusters.

Could very well be LR eggs!

looks nice and fine, like your sand.

rlcline76 · 06-27-2008, 10:37 PM

Are they spiralled?

Hard to tell but that ornament is leaching phosphates i bet. Salt water will eat stuff like that up.
My guess would be left over snail eggs.
Doni, I never saw a snail run over its eggs like that. My old ones use to lay them every night in an S shape but not on top of one another like that.
