What are these things???

[leviburns89]

These are starting to appear in several places. They don't move, and are almost like an egg sack. In my tank I have

3 turbos
5 nassarius
15 dwarf cerith
4 astrea
4 trochus
7 Nerite

Could they be snail eggs? I thought snails didn't reproduce in reef tanks..

Looks like snail eggs to me but I'm not sure what type of snail lays that type of egg. Looks to be a fair number of them too. What type of snails do you have in the tank?

It's in the original post.

I have recently discovered a few small - large stomatella snails as well.

The turbos are pretty big, not quite golf ball size, but getting there.

I think I figured it out.

Nerite snail eggs.

Took a while to find that info, but I'm pretty sure.

Anyone else agree?

Sorry, I was too focused on the pics. I googled Nerite snail eggs and I think you are correct. Looks them to me.
