The_Little_One Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Hey folks, I was out of town over the weekend and had a friend feed my fish while I was away. I noticed some small white spots on the glass and driftwood. Not very many, but little groups of 3 - 4 at once. I've tried reading up on google but can't stand how many contradictory articles there are. Does anyone know what this is? Could it be harmful to my fish? Help!?

ckmullin Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 pics? do these spots move or ALWAYS still ? too early to really say this or that...although the grouping comment is interesting.

AJanzen Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Yeah, I'm on the nerite snail train here as well. I've got some zebra snails and they lay little eggs everywhere. Don't worry, they won't hatch unless the water's brackish and even then it's apparently fairly difficult to have a successful hatch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quetzalcoatl Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 It could also be a bacteria colony on left over food. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
