white lumps on turbo snail shell????
Ok so I have a turbo snail in my 40 gallon breeder (~8 months old). I have had it for about 4 months and it is everywhere in my tank. I recently ordered a CUC from reef cleaners and a couple weeks after everything started to move around the tank i noticed some small which raise bumps on its shell. Everything thing i could find suggests that they are snail eggs. I have nerites, nassarius, and cerith snails, and pods in the CUC. I just wanted to post on here to get some more input. is there a chance that it could be something in my water? Let me know what you all think.

They are nerite eggs.
