White seed like growths on logs!

Hello and thanks in advance ! I have these white things growing on my wood! Not sure what they are? If you pick them off they leave Rings the shape they were! All the fish look fine and healthy !

They look like nerite snail eggs!

Snail eggs from nerites. 100%.  SEEEEEEE @Chick-In-Of-TheSea  and those are so hard to get off sometimes! 😂

For clarity, they won't mature into new snails outside of brackish water.  So you're fine there.  It's just unsightly and whatnot.

Thanks so much! Lol I feel dumb now ! I guess I didn't know they would even lay out side of brackish water !

[Guppysnail]

They lay EVERYWHERE including on each other and other snails 🤣

@Roosterih oh they do but they don't hatch is all. Embrace the tank decoration!

Don’t fault them for helping to decorate @nabokovfan87! It’s their house and that’s their style for interior design. 😊

Only if I can have 1 snail in a 120G tank, LOL.... then I won't mind.  Then they have enough room to decorate.  Definitely shows you how hard species fight in the wild to stay thriving.

This is awesome. One was a hitchhiker with a severely cracked shell deep teeth marks and missing spire point. The eggs sealed it all up 😁🤗😍 That’s what friends do.

The best is when you have assassin snails with nerite snail eggs on them! 😂

That actually is amazing, I love it. I kind of wonder if they knew what they were doing when they applied that “bandage.”

But also.. you aren’t helping @nabokovfan87 join team snail with your “they lay eggs everywhere!!!” 🤣

He might get a male. No eggs at all! In which case cleans his black beard algae, keeps his glass clean, and has a cool shell design.
