Notice baby snails on my glass tank. I think they are turbo snails. How do I take care of them? do I need to buy empty shells? Will my fish eat them? Also I see eggs maybe ? On my turbo snail's back.

I have them too. They have been going around eating on the glass. My wrasse knocks them off all the time. I don't know if you should do much of anything. I have left them alone and they are growing great.
 
They're collonistas. Good guys. Look in there after the lights have been off a bit, you'll be surprised at the numbers. If they're not there tonight, they will be very soon.

Your turbo may have Spirorbid worms on him.

In the morning before lights I notice droves of them. You are on point about how many you will notice.
 
Their numbers will go up and down. I love seeing them in my tank.
