Hi! Can anyone identify what is the orange slime with white dots on my plant?
Thanks! Because it is a clown killifish breeding tank but these "eggs" like looking structures doesn't resemble killifish eggs... do advice!

Those are the eggs of pest snails. Best to remove it, or else you will face a snail infestation.

Yes, Lucas is right. Those are most definitely ramshorn eggs. Do you happen to keep ramshorn snails in that tank?

[griffinkid]

Oh yes i do! So that they can finish up the remnants of excess food i feed. Oh no, then i better remove them all!

Yea, it would be best to remove them if you don't want them to breed. You can leave one behind to clean up though. They can only breed in pairs (although they have no real males and females)

if they'd reached maturity, even you left 1 in the tank, it'll still multiple if they'd 'interacted' with one another...

Oh dear, lucky i found out this early or else i will have a tank of raving ramshorn! Haha thanks guys!
