funny little white spheres
Hoping there is an answer for this mystery.
This afternoon my brother in law and I tore down a planted 10 gallon
desktop tank. we discovered a good number of funny little white spheres,
about 1/8" in diameter. At first I thought they were small snails, but
upon closer inspection, realized that they were completely sealed. The
outer surface was hard, but a squeeze with a fingernail crushed the wall,
and produced a small white cloud which quickly disipated. Neither of us
has seen anything like it before and we are quite curious about them.
Plants in the tank are 20+ cryptocoryne wendtii, and several echinodorus
bleheri. Fish are several tetras, and a couple German rams.
Any ideas?
