Absolutely! You've identified Ramshorn Snail eggs correctly! These eggs are typically attached to surfaces such as aquarium glass, rocks, or plants, and may appear as clusters or individual capsules.

I'm sorry to hear that your first fish died. It can be disheartening, but it's also a common learning experience for many new aquarium owners. Remember, setbacks are common in the hobby, especially for beginners, but they can also be valuable learning opportunities. With patience, diligence, and the right knowledge, you can create a thriving aquarium environment for your fish.

Hey there! I totally get your frustration with stubborn algae. The Mag-Float is a magnetic algae scraper that generally works well for regular maintenance, but its effectiveness can vary depending on the type and thickness of the algae. While it's praised for being gentle on glass surfaces, it might struggle with tough, hard algae. For those persistent green algae spots, some hobbyists recommend trying a stainless steel algae scraper. It's more durable than a razor blade and may be effective against tough algae without risking scratches. Additionally, make sure your water parameters are in check, and consider adjusting your lighting and nutrient levels to discourage algae growth. It's always a bit trial and error in the world of aquarium maintenance, but the Mag-Float is a solid tool for everyday use. Just be cautious with very hard algae and consider alternative tools for those tougher spots. Best of luck, and may your tank stay crystal clear! 🌿🐟
