the white dots... are they in a spiral pattern? if so, small polycheate worms similar to feather dusters, have a short lifespan in tanks.

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?
