What are those egg looking things at the base of that coral? It is being nursed back to health due to RTN. I have seen them on glass, and on rocks before. They went away and now its back.

I purchased a clean up crew on line last year and after putting it in I noticed the exact same thing. They were everywhere! The best I could figure was maybe baby stomatella snails but never really investigated it. They did not harm anything. Hopefully somebody can give you a positive ID.

looks like bubble algae with red slime on it?

or a red macro

it looks like those old time candy buttons that came on wax paper. But white.

Like hard as a rock. It is slightly hollow though. (after pressing it breaks with a pocket underneath)

Plays jeopardy tune........

Wow...If these are snail eggs then I am going to have a lot of snails in my tank. They are all over my rocks.

Those are from merits snails. I had them in my old tank till I got rid of the snails. I never had an issue with mine hatching though.

+1 snail eggs. I have them all the time and usually a couple weeks later I will see baby snails. Mine are usually nassurous sp. snails. They don't last long as the wrasse eats them so does my hermits.
