What is this???

So I woke this morning to find this on my glass. Is it some sort of snail eggs? It's almost at the top of the glass so that's the only thing that I can think of. I zoomed in on the camera and it looks like a couple thousand eggs.

That's exactly what it is....snail eggs, aka free food.

My trochus snails have successfully bred in my tank. Maybe you'll get lucky.

Which fish will eat these?

 

[poidog]

So far it doesn't look like they have been bothered. Does anyone know how long it takes for snails to hatch?

 

[Smith11]

Freshwater take like a week, and they come out soooo small like needle point size

But i also had live bearing giant snalis who gave birth to like 6-8 penny sized babys, but yours are eggs so what i said before

I hung a piece of plexi glass in front of the eggs with a couple of veggie clips to protect them from the fish so we'll see what happens. It would be pretty cool if some survive.
