Who would lay eggs in this tank?

I have a 20 gallon long with 1 Dragon Bichir 5 Zebra Danios and some snails that snuck in on the gravel. This morning I was looking closely at the tank and there are little egg clusters all over the glass and some in the gravel. I read the Danios drop their eggs in the gravel so I,m wondering if maybe the snails could be responsible for the eggs on the glass?

If they are egg clutches on the glass, it's the snails

Zebra danios when they hatch look like little pin dots with tails, and they dont take long to hatch. My danio eggs were always in the gravel so the ones on the glass are probably the snails.

I dont have snails but i have heard alot of people become over run with them.

If your planning on saving any danio babies suck them out with a turkey baster

What do the eggs look like? Is it a ball of jelly substance with dots inside? Or does it resemble a rasberry?

Danios scatter their eggs all over the tank as the swim along. Snails leave clusters of eggs. y vote is that it's snail eggs

Yup snails. If you dont' want to be over run with them you can scrap them off with a credit card or anything really.
