What Are They?

[ladylouroll]

i just went to syphon one of my tanks out and i have found about 10 yellow eggs i presume. they are perfectly round about 2-3mm in size. i have ramshorn snails, bumblebee gobies, pygmy cories, galaxy rasboras and 2 dwarf sunfish o and also cherry shrimp in the tank what could they be?

If they are in a sack like jelly stuck to the glass I would say ramshorn eggs, if they are indivudual they maybe cory, just guessing!

I think they are ramshorn eggs.

i would also say snail eggs, which should be removed ASAP, unless you want more snails in your tank.

see i originally thought ramshorn too but my ramshorns are smaller than a 1p in size. so im not sure if they could have sqweezed them out? i believe bumble bee gobies lay eggs in roots and under gravel which was where these were?? do ramshorns lay there? they are just a single yellow ball by itself sat now on top of the gravel they dont have a clear membrane like snail eggs.

the best thing would be to see what they hatch into. dont worry about being over run with snails should they turn out the be ramshorn eggs. the only way to be over run with snails is if you overfeed the tank.
just a thought.
cheers

yeah think i will do that. i have ramshorn eggs in the tank already so im almost positive its not snails. i think it must be bbg as my cories are only wee too. hmm time will tell! thanks guys.
