What Are These Floaty White Balls?

[hoarp001]

Hi, in my 75gallon pirahna tank (babys at the moment) there are two small clusters of what looks like very small (0.5mm) white balls. They seem to be suspended in a clear mucus like jelly that is attaching them to the glass. One of the clusters is in the front corner and one of them is attached to the Co2 injector.

I tried taking photos of them but the camera kept focusing in the fish which were frolicing about in the distance and screwing up the auto focus so I didnt get any where the balls were clear.

Any ideas what they could be?

Thanks.

its not un eaten food, its stuck to the glass. the food i give them is meat and they eat it all usualy...

The ta nk does have a snail problem, maybe they are snail eggs...

Sounds like snail eggs. Some fish will eat them others don't. If your fish don't bother with them I would just remove them.
