Feeling like an idiot, thought it was waste and been removing it from the tank...hubby says their snail eggs. From images they look to be turbo eggs... if they are so...is there anything special we need to do to ensure their survival? Tank is fallow for another 8 weeks approx.

Not sure whether turbos can successfully reproduce in our tanks, but I would just leave the eggs where they are and hope for the best. (Trochus _can_ reproduce in aquaria, and I've found nassarius in my tank that were smaller than any I ever introduced, so . . . )

Hubby said he did see our big trochus ‘mammoth’ in that area. Either way...more algae eaters the better
