The pinhead things on the glass would be copepods. They are harmless and actually a good sign that your tank is maturing. The things in your picture look like egg sacks of some sort. What types of snails do you have in your tank? That would be my first suspect.

Could be from the nassarius. They lay eggs in what looks like a clear dome sac.
