Reefsickness Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Been out of town for 3 days came back to find these transparent wing like things sticking out of my sand bed with 100s of little white eggs all over them. theres like 30 of these things. Does any one know what they are and should i get them out of my tank befor they hatch. Sorry these are the best pics i can get. Thanks Reefsickness (scratch) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matty Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I am pretty sure they are snail eggs. I helped I.d. these for a guy on a different site, but I can't remember what they were. What kind of snails do you have in the tank? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matty Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I think you are also talking about the chestnut that is a smaller more orange version of a standard turbo. If thats the case then I would say turbo snail eggs as one margarita would be too lonely! I think a couple of weeks they should begin to hatch but if you have fish in tank they will eat them pretty quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matty Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Never mind. Turbo's are broadcast spawners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
