ID - 2 mos old tank

[bryan3536]

So these just showed up today in my 2 mos old tank, on glass.

One looks like a Star, no bigger than pencil point until you zoom in.

Other looks like a small piece of snail flesh, size of the point of a Sharpie marker. These are mostly on the silicone in corners of tank. Look blue in photo, snail-flesh tan in real life.

Ideas?

First pic is either a hydroid or a very young nem. Second is likely a very young snail

I'm thinkin hydroid in pic #1. Pic #2 looks like baby Nerites.

I had some hydroids in my tank early on and they looked exactly like that first picture!

Thanks guys. I think you are right, Photo 1 Medusa Hydroids.

Did some searching, I’m 99% Photo 2 is trochus snail eggs. They’ve been active lately and the photo I saw when I google imaged that was identical.

Thanks!
