Well .... for the last while I have been searching the net trying to find an ID on these guys with no luck.... I can easily count 30 of these guys on my glass and they seem to stay on the glass rather than the substrate or rock from what I have noticed. They are multiplying at a quick pace... Here is a pic of the snail and of the new egg sacks from today... Anybody have any idea on what type of snails they are. Thanks in advance.

"snail eggs do smile if they are happy"
