Lighting is 2 250watt halides. fresh batches of baby brine are added weekly. The water quality is very good not awesome but very good. Have lots of Cerith eggs on glass and also another batches of eggs that are white and oval. the eggs im trying to figure out are the ones that i posted pics of they are in a few place and on 4 to 6 in areas.

Cerith eggs don't look like that. Turbos don't usually lay eggs, they spawn. Maybe Euplica or stomatella varia, but you didn't mention that you had them.
Check this, you might have more snails than you think:

Unless the Euplica or stomatella were hitchhikers in the live sand that i had added reciently i pretty much know what i have in my tank. Occasionally something will show up like the one little crab i dont know what or were it came from.
My opinion is nassarius. Mine lay eggs similar to that, but yours look a bit more greenish than mine. Seeing as they are in a tank filled with macros, and the glass has some heavy green algael growth, it may just appear that way.

These egg sacks are very clear. And yes have lots of Macro Algea as well as green algael growth. Seems my tanks are the healthiest when i have lots of both.

I wish i could show what hatched. Have 6 kids at home kind of makes it hard to sit and wait.
