Hi folks I’m wondering what this could be. I’ve noticed these tiny dots in the past 5 days or so on my front glass. It’s been hell trying to photograph them. There are a few diffent “colonies” and all are arranged in a cool feathery looking group.

My tank is a little over 2 years old. I’m just getting clear of a two month battle with Dino’s. I’m wondering if it is nassarius snail eggs, maybe Trochus eggs? I used to have zillions of brittle sea stars but the Dino’s got them.

Wondering if I should wipe them off or leave them. I’m not a big fan of tons of things in my tank that I didn’t invite in.

Cool! Good to know. Now that you mention it I think I saw my Trochus spawning a while back. It was fascinating.
It’s fun to watch happen!
