White spots on glass

After cleaning out my biorb tank a few days ago, many white tiny spots have appeared on the inside of the tank?

What do you have in the tank? Are they spots or like small grains stuck to the glass? Do you have nerite snails? If so they are likely snail eggs.

I only have 1 fantail fish which I’ve had for three years. I have plants and the filtration stones. The plants are not new, so I don’t know where the snail eggs could have come from? I would post a photo but tried unsuccessfully!

How big are they? Do they move around? If they are small and kind move they might be copeopods.

They are small and round. The size of tapioca. They don’t appear to move.
