I found two groupings of eggs on my glass the other day. I am fairly certain the first are from my nessarius snails.

Is the round egg group in the second image a copepod egg cluster? There was one guy that was hanging out around it while I was taking pictures.

Exactly what kind of snails/invertebrates do you have? Anything out of the ordinary?

A couple nerite, turban, and nassarius snails. I've also seen a few asterina starfish that must've hitched in on my live rock. Other inverts are a few hermits and a pistol shrimp, but wouldn't be anywhere near the glass where this was taken, about 6" from the sand bed in the middle of the pane.
