Found a few eggs on the stem of a cryp.

Possible candidates (most of which only spawn in brackish)
- Ember Tetras
- Horned Nerite Snails
- Amano Shrimps
- Possibly Siamese algae eaters? (haven't found any solid info of them breeding, but they sure play around with eachother a lot)


I don't have any pest snails or anything in the tank thanks to my loaches.



Also a full tank shot :nerd:

My money is on the Nerites.

Comparing to this photo, I would definitely say you are right. I've had these snails for about 5 months now... a bunch have died... and suddenly they decide to lay some eggs? I wonder what the trigger is.

BTW has anyone had any luck moving these to a brackish water cup to hatch?

Man that's bold! Way to assert your dominance, nerites.
Haha
My nerites have even laid eggs on each other. I also agree, those are Nerite eggs.

Just catch the guilty girls and the problem of white spots disappear.

They won't hatch so just get em off or you have an overload of annoying white stuff everywhere
