h2odvl Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 Found these white spots on my front glass today I'm thinking they are eggs of some kind. Anyone know what they are? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mandinga Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 snail eggs...if you haven't noticed them before, get ready to be inundated... turbo snails will eat them, but you will have to scrape em because turbos can't keep up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gill Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 Good for you!!! That is cool!!! Watch out for that red slime (if that is what you have) hard to tell from pick. There is also a wonderful red algae the same shade of red. If your turbos eat that stuff its the good kind of algae, but if you notice it getting long like hair algae watch out because its probably red slime and in my experience with it it will take over!!!

jackaninny Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 I Just posted a thread about 2 weeks ago. I added 3 Nerite snails and within a day I had eggs all over. I haven't seen any hatch or anything else eat them. I did scrape a few off my glass since I was not have a shortage (laugh) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
