Small White Eggs?

[phoenixgsd]

attached to my filter are several tiny but very white bits they wernt there yesterday and can only assume eggs, they arnt round more oval, there a few stuck on the spraybar too i have tried to get a picture but they are so small and all i get is reflection, my fish that are more than one are cherry barbs, harlequin rasboras, khulis and bronze corys the only snails i have are 2 sprial horns and MTS, anyone have any idea what they are?

Sounds like cory eggs. It's their MO.

ok got a piccie

see how tiny they are, they are all along the filter gaps that you see, some all in a nice long line, are you sure they are cory eggs? i just googled them and the pictures are of bunched together eggs and they are round, unlike these

Difficult to see, but if its most likely the cories. Barbs and rasboras are egg-scatterers, cories kinda place their eggs where they want them.

Snail eggs?

ive  got about 200 MTS and 2 spiral horns which apparently dont breed in tropical water ....or so i was told

Do you have any assassin snails? (probably not if you have other snails since they will eat them LOL) anyhow... my assassins are forever laying eggs on my filter casing. They look like tiny tags with a white dot in the middle.

 

[phoenixgsd]

nope no assassin snails no pest snails either although i know what pest snail eggs look like, i is baffled

They're too small for cory eggs. Likely snails.

 

[phoenixgsd]

you think its the spiral horns eggs?

I would guess they are corries, but whichever eggs they are, if you want to save them, put something over the filter. Best of luck with your aquarium, and congratulations on the eggs.

They're too small to be cory eggs, IME. And nearly impossible to tell what kind of snail eggs.
