Who's Eggs Are My Snails Eating?

[supersuzie]

hello everyone.

had a look in the tank tonight and noticed the snails (that i hate) are chowing down on some eggs I've never seen before. i know they aren't the snails own eggs as I've seen those and they're all in jelly (and if they ate those, i wouldn't have the snail problem i do) and gross. these eggs are yellow and clean looking and stuck to the vallis leaves and the glass.
my tank is full of waifs and strays I've adopted off people so here are the likely suspects:
5 x albino black widow tetras
5 x black tetras
4 x agassiz corys
and here are the rank outsiders:
1 x zebra danio
1 x glowlight tetra
1 x some kind of Chinese river loach
1 x random shrimp
and three days ago i lost a really old lemon tetra.

forgive me if i don't know the names of some of the fish as they were rescued from a friends goldfish tank so not bought by me.

thank you for looking!

You may want to stop the snails. Corydoras stick their eggs on the side of the glass like that.

Hi supersuzie

Yup, they look like cory eggs to me. If you want to raise any, read this thread and post in the Corydoras section of the Catfish forum. We'll be happy to help you.
