Unidentified Stuff On Glass

[rookie07]

I will post a pic soon. What is this stuff?

Appears to be a white dot with alittle clear aroud the center mass. I wipe the glass clean, and the next day this stuff is all over again.

From the look of the picture they look like Pods. No need to worry a good thing. Just make sure they are white..

Is this it?

These are hydroids.

Mine dont have the web like ring around them. However, if I left them for a few days they might. The inside looks very close to what I have

I have them in my tank. No need to worry they come and go.

cal deposits.

Is that what they look like? If yes, then your nassarius are laying eggs. If you don;t have nassarius snails then i dunno.

Good job Tony! I saw these white specks in person and I knew they looked familiar but I couldn't put my finger on it. I think they are nassarius snail eggs as well.

LOL TOny these were better than most pics as of late LOL

I've got the same things on the back of my tank. I thought nassarius snails don't lay eggs in captivity.

Mine lay eggs all the time.

 

[rookie07]

Thats them.
Thanks guys.
So, should I clean/kill them?
or let them multiply?
Thanks Guys

More food for your upcoming fishies. I'd just scrape them off the glass, but no need to take any particular action.

I've never had my nassarius lay eggs, but my cerith snails were laying eggs about every other day for a while, leaving those long spiral eggs tracks all over the glass and the rocks.

they will disappear by themselves. I would just leave it alone.
