Hey all,

While cleaning the tank today, I've noticed 4 of these 'eggs' on the window. I think they're snail eggs, but I'm not sure what kind? I've had my Nassarius & Cerith lay eggs, but never anything like this. They usually just leave a long white sticky trail of tiny rice grain shaped eggs. These are much bigger and translucent.

Any idea what these are?

Thanks!
 
Dove snail eggs.
 
I don't have Dove snails either. That said, there's 2 more eggs now and there's definitely something in there. We'll see what happens!
dove snails arent big like 1-1.5cm long and those egg sacks look exactly like the egg sacks my dove snails lay, here is a pic of what dove snail eggs look like.

Any updates? I get something similar but only have nessarius and cerith snails left as far as I’m aware. Mine get these little white dots inside…they are maybe 2mm across
