Hi, one of my nerites wanted to pursue her dream as an artist, so she decorated the tank for christmas… a little early but well appreciated

Name suggestions?

I've never seen them lay like that I've had them lay singular eggs here there and everywhere but never in a little cluster like this

I named all of mine "annoying little critter." (I HATE trying to clean up nerite eggs, and they seem to last forever) At least yours is being artistic.

How do you clean them? I never could figure out a good way to get them off the woodwork.

You can do that with most stem plants...just make sure you cut it with sharp scissors so the stem doesn't get crushed...otherwise it will just rot rather than take root.....and obviously remove the leaves that will be under the sand/gravel
