| the white dots... are they in a spiral pattern? if so, small polycheate worms similar to feather dusters, have a short lifespan in tanks. _________ Got Questions? Need Answers? "Believe those who are seeking the truth; doubt those who find it." Andre Gide  |

| Horton, do you have a magnifying glass? You'd be amazed at how much more you can see at 10x magnification. You can get one for less than $5.00

| I'll get a magnifying glass
I think they might be the snail eggs. Do I just scrape them? |
