The first pic is snail eggs. The last pic is pineapple sponge. Not sure about the middle one. Maybe a nudibranch of some kind?
Thanks, was thinking snail eggs, just wasn't sure how they made them to the return chamber, above the water line. I haven't seen any snails make it down to the sump

Your welcome. It looks like you have at least one snail in there...lol. Does that middle one move around?

Nah, I don't think so, I tried pushing one around with a turkey baster, it didn't move, but fell off the wall pretty easy
