Just looked at one of my ramshorn snails then and noticed it had eggs on its side...or maybe they were tiny baby snails...all huddled up in the grooved in centre bit...
pretty weird...
anyone else seen this before?

Sometimes small snails like pond snails will attack larger snails such as applesnails. You may want to check closer to see if they are tiny pond snails and not the same shape as your ramshorn. Both the planorbidae and marisa lay eggs on plants so if they are eggs it's unlikely they are from a ramshorn.
