Are these snail eggs?

The pic with 2 eggs are above water. The rest are either just below the surface or almost at the bottom. They are everywhere.

I have Nerite snails, Neons, Cloud Minnows and Rummynose Tetras along with 3 Amano Shrimp.

I've been killing 1-3 very small snails everyday. They aren't Ramshorn snails, they're more oval shaped. They don't look big enough to be laying eggs.

Those are most defintely snail eggs. However, they are nerite snail eggs and they will not hatch because nerite snail eggs only hatch in SW tanks. The eggs are pretty hard to remove unfortunately. But you can try to scrape them off.

Thank you!

I guess they'll get eaten. I just ordered a bunch of Nerites so it would be nice if they would hatch but I know they don't multiply in freshwater.

No problem.
