What are these eggs

[marlinmero]

Wondering what kind of snail eggs these are and if theres a chance of hatching. And also i got some mangroves and was wondering if i could just stick em in my sump or if the tops have to be out of the water?

I think they are snail eggs
Do you have the black and white striped snails in your tank (i cant remember name)

Probably Cerith snail eggs. Chances of them surviving is slim to none, but things with worse odds have survived our tanks!!

I also have them they lay eggs EVERYWERE!!!!!!
none of mine hatch they just fly off after a while..

 

[marlinmero]

maybe if took em off the glass and put em in the sump they might live?

Problem is, they don't hatch as a snail. They hatch as a planktonic life form. They float around, as microscopic lil guys and get sucked up by pumps, skimmers and such.

Ah, well thats to bad. guess there a good food for pods and critters then

They look like 'sunny side up' to me :lol::lol:

Seriously though, my Cerith snails lay eggs, but they lay them in a sort of winding out fromthe center circle pattern. So, from the pic, it does not look like Certh snail eggs to me.

They look like nerite eggs. I got those all over my glass after I first got a dozen nerites. That's the reason I'll never again buy those snails. Those things are relatively hard to scrape off the glass. A standard mag float typically won't get them off.
