jon_703 July 3, 2016 Share July 3, 2016 I saw this early today when I was cleaning my tank. I come home tonight and see this craziness. Any idea what it is??? All these white spots, can't tell exactly what they are. Sent from my SM-N920P using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squishie89 July 3, 2016 Share July 3, 2016 Looks like baby/teeny tiny snails. I believe I have those too, have not been able to ID them yet. If they are the same thing they do not appear to be harmful, hard to tell if they are helpful though haha. Here is a photo of mine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irishfist25 July 3, 2016 Share July 3, 2016 They are snail eggs. Some fish eat them and if they don't, they are harmless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squishie89 July 3, 2016 Share July 3, 2016 Were the dots moving at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon_703 July 3, 2016 Author Share July 3, 2016 I couldn't tell if they were moving. But this morning there were less. My Tomni likes picking at stuff and I just added a Mandarin. Sent from my SM-N920P using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr11 July 3, 2016 Share July 3, 2016 Do they look like little swirls up close? If they could be spirorbid worms (a type of feather duster). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madweazl July 3, 2016 Share July 3, 2016 These are what I have by the bajilions. Pretty sure they're snail larvae. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmerek2 July 4, 2016 Share July 4, 2016 (edited) My collonista snails come out at night. I love them. Wouldn't trade them for anything. They reproduce in aquaria which is awesome Edited July 4, 2016 by gmerek2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
