I have a new 10 gal. planted aquarium. I have 10 Cardinal Tetras, 7 snails and 4 cherry shrimp. I looked this morning and found what looked like a white growth on a leaf. Upon closer inspection, I saw many small eggs in it and was wondering who it could belong to. I hope it is either the shrimp or Tetras. It is very stiffly stuck on to the leaf and appears to be a sack of them. I found one on the underside of a leaf earlier but didn't see it, only felt it, and I destroyed it. I had a problem with insufficient light (the problem is fixed now) and was pruning the dead leaves off my Ozelot Sword. I thought it was decaying material (I really don't know what I was thinking) and scraped it off and scooped it up. It was kind of a jelly like substance and was clear/white. Any clues as to what kind of "fishie" will be coming out is appreciated.

This may not be the type of snail you have but it may give you some insight on the type of eggs. http/applesnail.net/content/embryology.php

I once had snails and it will stay only once. The little tiny black ones... they should quit saying breeds like rabbits and start saying breeds like snails. I started with 4 or so and within just a few months it seemed I was scooping them up and giving them to a friend with an Oscar. They not only took over my tank but even with Oscars and al his Highly agressive fish took over his also. I had to actually get rid of every last one. Seems the things could be a sexual. (JK)
Anyway, Never had the larger snails so don't know if they do the same or not but scared to find out.
