Mystery snail eggs!

So while dosing my ferts and feeding, I found 3 clumps....

Let them stay humid and moist. Do not scrub the sides of the glass to leave as much biofilm as possible for them to graze on.

Do not cover them with water, the snails are breathing in the egg mass!!!

Congrats!

Just let them be. Mommy snails pick a warm moist spot so if you let them be they should be ok.

They start to look grey and moldy and crumple as they get close to hatching. If they stay pink and hard for over a month they probably aren't fertile.

Thank you autumnsky and TMaier, I'm just chilling with the eggs left right where they are. We will see what happens. The big clump is pinkish and the smaller clumps is more of a brown, but it's only been about 1 week. I posted as soon as I saw them, but I'm good if I only get a few this time. I want to add more when I upgrade to a 40b for my grandchild, also gonna add more endlers and some least killifish. I have a thread for that tank as I research and build, this just puts it on hold for a little while.

I would swear I have had some hatch in less than 2 weeks. Some at closer to 4.

We're watching them closely, especially the brown ones.
