Mrs. Limpet Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 I found this today on my wall. It's white ribbon looking thing. Does anyone know what it is and is good, bad or indifferent? TIA Quote Link to comment
xM3THODx Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 Looks very familiar...like a row of snail eggs. Is it in your main display? 1 Quote Link to comment

mndfreeze Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 Most won't hatch, if any. Its normal for snails to lay eggs in a reef tank and they just end up being food for your fish and inverts. A few species are known to breed in tanks but even if they do they are always controlled by their food source so if there isn't enough algae to support them they won't over breed anyway.

They do a great job keeping algae in check. I'm glad it's just snail eggs and not something bad Quote Link to comment
