White dots on my aquarium glass

Question
I noticed these small beige dots on my glass, i have some snails and i wondering if these our baby snails. What do baby snails look like.     I only have guppies and a catfish in my tank.

Answer
Hi Maureen
They most likely are snails, especially if you already have some in your tank.  It depends on what kind of snail you have, but most snail eggs will look like they're in a clear jelly, and can be stuck to plants, or the tank glass.  Baby snails are really tiny, about the size of a little speck, and obviously larger as they grow.  Are the spots moving around?  If so, that's most likely what they are.  Or, does the dot look larger and flat, like an algae?
