Well this morning I found these eggs on my glass, I'm sure that they are snail eggs.  Here are some pictures above and below.  Does anyone know what kind these eggs are.

What kind of snails do you have in your tank? I've not seen that specific egg "bundle," either, but I'd bet that we could get close.

Nope no conches.  I have astrea, cerith, and some nerite snails.  I'm pretty sure that the eggs are cerith since I started off with 12 and now have 50.  That original egg clutch vanished, but I found another clutch on another wall of the tank.
