Well when i went to go look at my tank, i noticed thousands of little bubbles in the tank. But when i turned off the flow to get a better look they loooked more like eggs. I made sure it wasnt my emrald crab spawning again. When i turned of the flow the "eggs" gathered together in several diffrent groups and made a tornado like shape? I have no clue of what they are. i do have a cleanersrhimp in the tank but i am pretty sure it wasnt him. I took some pictures the "eggs" are at the top of the tank.

Any ideas of what they are??

THanks.

look and sound like just plain ol air bubbles to me

i dont think so. these things were round and white. it doesnt really matter, they are all gone but i was just checking if anyone had this happen to them.

The only other thing I could think of are copepods, but that doesn't sound like normal behavior, and they aren't perfectly round.

well no, if they were solid white then they are not air bubbles, musta been some kind of eggs, weird of them to behave that way though as they are usually stuck to something.
