Looks like the beginning of coralline algae to me. The white dots in my tank turn green then purple. :)
 
It's algae, I'm telling you guys. LOL If you have to scrape it off that seals the deal. I leave mine and after a few weeks it is purple. I must have hundreds of those white dots in my tank.

NOW, if it moves or is a swirly type of pattern then yeah its a snail but if it's just solid it's the coralline. :)
 
Hears a little bit better one

Those are exactly what's in my tank lol yea the coraline in my nano did not start like this ither
 
I've had the white dot transformation going on for about a year now. :-D

I initially thought it was snails but left them alone and monitored them. Thats how I figured it out.
