Hmm not so sure I agree on snail eggs. I get these in my tank as well and the same spots have been in the same place for months. Wicked was over the other day and we talked about em. He gets them also and hasn't figured it out either.
If they are in fact snail eggs maybe they are just going unfertilized? Not sure on the reproductive cycle of snails though so its just a wild guess.
