Default White donut shaped thingy's

Hey everyone

I tried to take a picture of the above named things, but the pictures just dont turn out. The things I am refering to are very small, attached to the back glass and look like tiny white donutes. They are about the size of a few grains of sand or salt.

I have nothing but live rock and snails in my tank and it has been up and running since the first week of March.

Thanks

-Cam

really? that'd be neat. I didn't know the feather dusters would attach themselves to the glass.

thanks

Probaly vermatid snails, or calcium deposits. They're really tiny, and almost coiled on the glass, right?

yeah, they do one full circle, then thats it.

the ends do not meet up with eachother, they are offset slightly.
