Need help IDing something!
« on: January 03, 2010, 12:38:13 »
Hello, So I have theses little white dots that are on the glass in my fish tank. They are about the size of a ball point pen head, some are translucent some are solid white. They seem to be in the trail of the snails in my tank. Any ideas?

Do they harden to the glass ever? or just dissolve away once the snail hatches?

Most of the time, they don't hatch.  Usually they'll dissolve away over time, but I usually just scrape the glass before then anyway.  I wouldn't worry too much.

Ok never saw them in my 30gallon I think my 75 gallon has a lot better water quality and is finally getting established. Thanks everyone was just worried I had some crazy infection or something

Post pics if you're still concerned.  If the white spots aren't moving...just stuck to the glass, you're probably ok.  :)
