Answer 1

those are snail eggs.  I don't like snails because you end of with a snail infestation.

Answer 2

Sounds to me like snails, they are quick to reproduce.

How many snails do you have? How big are they?

Answer 3

Without seeing the eggs this is only a guess.  If you have several snails I'd say they have been "romantically inclined".  Snails are more apt to reproduce in a small aquarium than fish.  If you have recently added new plants, eggs may have come in on those.  If you are really worried set up a small tank (use 1/2 water from the old tank) and gently place the eggs in that until the hatch.  I'd be excited to see what you have there.

Answer 4

if its that big then its probably from the biggest fish in you tank

Answer 5

they are most likely snail eggs, and can quickly over take a tank, i would let nature take its course.

I keep only one pleco per tank so mine never bred, my guess would be they would lay eggs on the gravel or on a piece of driftwood

Answer 6

I would say it is probably from the plecos or the snails. Do you want more life in the aquarium? If you do then you could probably scoop them into a breeder net...if not they will probably get eaten.
