    Looks like it to me...do you have apple/mystery snails?

          sweet! those are snail eggs. if you don't want them to hatch, just remove them. If you do want them to hatch you should check out www.applesnail.net They will sometimes hatch if you do nothing but generally they need higher humidity then they will get in your aquarium. And they can't sit in water.

          I would love to see pictures of your snails. :)

              Blue snails are pretty. Don't put them in water. They will drown.

                  +1 mystery snails...




                  They will hatch out of the water and then find their way to the water. If you keep your tank water low they will lay eggs alot. if you don't want them to lay eggs keep the tank full to the top. they will only lay out of the water.

                    Eew. They're pretty slimy when you go to remove em so use a rough sponge.

                          Not usually if they're laid out of the water.

                            I'll leave them for a while to see if they hatch. They are right below the filter flow and above a bubbler so they get some splash back from both.

                              hmm if you let them harden a day or two, they are not slimy. kinda of dry and papery.
