ID Help Please- Snail Eggs?

Just wanted to give update on the red planaria flatworm situation. After spending a couple of weeks siphoning every day (or two) and adding a melanurus wrasse, it did not appear that we were making any progress in the "battle". I went ahead and started with the Flatworm Exit treatment. I dosed the tank according to the directions and after about 5 minutes or so flatworms started dying. After 45 minutes of "the purge" as my daughter referred to it, i did a 20% water change and began running a cannister filter with carbon to remove the remaining medication and toxins. Hopefully, this will be the end of the problem. Stay tuned...
 
I thought I'd give an update on the red planaria flatworm treatment in my daughter's tank. After month following the treatment, we don't see any more flatworms!! :D Now we can move on to the next challenge....green hair algae explosion :(
 
Flatworms do make good fertilizer:D
Glad it worked!
