I am 99,9% positive about the snail eggs. They look typical to me. Interestingly enough I wanted to ask you about your snails and how much eggs they lay.
Snail eggs in groove of heater.
Woah eggs eggs eggs. Let's see if there will be tiny snails soon...

I was able to isolate the berried Alpha in a jar. I also was experimenting to see if the Alpha would eat a opae ula larva (see 1.03 mark) and after 24 hours the larva is still there. So this particular Alpha was not interested but I noticed it was staring at it for the longest time.
Ultimate goal is to video an Alpha larva.

Opae Ula larva disappeared in the jar. :( I did have some tiny holes on the lid that it could of went through or got eaten by Alpha. I will try again without any holes next time to eliminate that possibility.
