Sooo...has anyone come up with a way of removing Nerite snail eggs from the glass? I've been really going to town with a scrubber, but it's taking a ton of effort....I have a lot of eggs to get rid of...

Any ideas would be helpful!

For anyone interested, I've found out the only real way of completely removing them is a razor blade. It's SO much easier!

For glass, I got rid of the snails and they eventually disappeared. I think the plecos handled it ... but I ended up throwing a very expensive piece of driftwood out b/c of the ridiculous amounts of snail eggs. I tried razor blade and it worked but I scraped up the wood and it took forever. So I thought the neighborhood pond fish would enjoy it (I bleached it and dried it out just to make sure I didn't start a nerite infestation).

But now that I think about it, I should have kept it. I bet my shrimp would have eventually gotten them off,... dang.
