They are in my 7G tank which had a nerite snail, khuli's 2 very young cories and 4 guppies. Who's the culprit. There's a few on the glass lots on top of the sand cave and a few on the 3D back ground too.

The corries are about a cm long if not less so I don't think they'd be sexually mature yet.
I heard Nerite snails don't breed in the home aquarium and if they do the eggs don'tusually hatch but there's only one snail in there.
I know the guppies arelive bearers more importantly they're all Boys so that would be worrying!
Could it be the khulis maybe?
 
well, we can rule out the guppies as they are livebearers, and appearantley males, the khulis because they lay green eggs and they lay them on plants,at first I thought I thought they weren nerite eggs- but you only have one... in which case it might have been the cories, have you seen them behaving any different lately? Cory's eggs stick, here is a link- scroll down until you see some pics of cory eggs- http://www.aqualandpetsplus.com/Catfish,%20Corydoras.htm
 
They definately look like nerite snail eggs to me, could be wrong...
 
Yeah Iwas thinking nerite the cory's have only been in the tank for a few days and no mating behaviour from them plus they're still very baby. I've only had the snail a week so she could of already been egged up when I got her. Guess I best try and shift them then.
