What Kind Of Eggs Are These?

[Graft]

I normally dont post, just read. But I've got a question and I am hoping someone can help. I've got some eggs on a piece of Jungle Val I purchased, and I have no idea what kind they are. I remember having tons of those little snails that do nothing but breed and quickly overpopulate the tank. I remember they had tiny eggs that were more clear. Can anyone tell what these are? Maybe a larger snail? Maybe a disease?

l

And a closer look...

Any ideas?

Yeah. I'm just hoping from the color and size of the eggs, that it won't be those tiny snails that breed like rabbits. Thanks for the reply.

Probably pond snails, send them my way. My clown loaches love those things!

they don't look like snail eggs to me. Snail eggs are usually black dots encased in a lump of snot like stuff.

They look identical to the pest snails eggs i kept getting until my Betta discovered that he likes the taste of them.

jelly with white dots in it.

I don't think they're snail eggs, but I could be wrong. Out of the fish you have, I'd say possibly cherry barbs, though I've never actually seen them.
Yeah, I know... that was a lot of help!

Cheery barbs are egg scatterers...

Besides - I think they are saying the eggs came on the plant when they bought it...

Thanks for the replies.

I hope these things are pond snails...as long as pond snails are larger snails that don't litter aquariums.

My profile is a little old. That tank of fish seems like a lifetime ago. I've actually just now completed the cycle of my tank, but have no fish at the moment.

I hope you're wrong, but I have a feeling you're right.

Anything helps.

Finally, yep. They came on the plant when I purchased it. It's from http/www.aquariumplants.com/. I bought from them a long time ago and got some hitch-hikers that I liked, I am just wondering if these will be ones that I want to keep and not flush.

I would personally remove the eggs or, if you have a spare tank, put the plant in there and see what the eggs become...

 

[helterskelter]

I'm 95% sure their not snail eggs unless it's something I've never seen before.

So no fish as yet and came on the plants....
I would remove them as well, could be an insect i guess. Some will happily eat small fish if it is.

Thanks, Corin and helter. I wasn't wanting to do that, but I guess I will get rid of them. Hopefully they aren't anything neat.

99.9% sure they are snail eggs.
