What are these?

Anyone knows what these white dots are? Just saw them for the first time this morning. I think less likely to be snail eggs since they are so deep, maybe copepods ? I had added Amano shrimp from an aquarium shop tank which did not look the cleanest.

Thanks!

They look just like nerite eggs to me. I don't think they are too deep for that, but if you don't have nerites then I have no idea.

Did you get some nerites? If they're stuck to the glass and hard to scrape off, nerite eggs would be my guess as well. For the longest time, I never saw nerite eggs in my tank, but this latest batch has deposited them a number of times including one time near the bottom of the glass like that.

Yes I do have nerite snails. Thought they laid it out of water in clumps. Had 3, two of them died and now the remaining one is laying eggs!!

It’s Mystery snails that lay out of the water.
