Saw about 70-80 of these pop up “overnight” alll over the reef. Admittedly have not done my regular watching so could have been there for a few days.

Any ideas? Beginning of the end?

Not sure who's they are, but I do believe they are eggs.

I'd just leave them. More likely they get eaten than they survive and hatch.

Update photos on the baby snails

looks like they snails are developing in some of the earlier egg sacs. You can see the later ones are overlapping- I must have 200 of these sacs on the glass and rock work.
