Tank contains: coral beauty-cardinals-clowns-fire shrimp-trochus, turbos and nassarius snails. I was thinking nassarius but they dont seem to be exactly.

Could be cardinal eggs that the male spit out. Do you have a pair of cardinals?

Yes I have 2 Banggai.

But I don't see any of them near the eggs.

Not sure what size those eggs are, but they look pretty large - the cardinals would be my first thought too; the only other critter listed that could potentially be the owner is the fire shrimp, and it would be extremely odd to see the egg mass outside of the shrimp.

Thank you for your thoughts on this. I can't find them anymore so perhaps the fish ate them. They were just the size of BBs. I didn't see any mucosal coating for any snail possibility.
