I found some white spots on two of my dying plants so i uprooted the plants and cut off the sections with the white dots... Ive tried googling the fish i have in the aquarium to see what kinda fish would lay those kinda eggs... But none that i know off in my tank would...

I have
5 Electric blue rams
4 German blue rams
3 apistogramma Cockatoidies
2 apistogramma Macmasteri
2 albino rainbow sharks
1 Electric blue Jack Dempsey
2 Freshwater Flounder
2 Gold barbs
1 Barchardi
3 Octo Cats
4 Various Cory cats
3 Bamboo shrimp
2 Ataya aka vampire shrimp
various sakura, red bee, black bee shrimp...

29 gallon high tank...

I feel its some kinda eggs... cuz of the almost straight line that they are in...

Oh and i forgot I have 1 bumble bee goby..

Oh and lastly, (you know those plastic breeding hang off things... i got one with about 2 inches of gravel and i house berried shrimp in there till they hatch... then i move the shrimp out, and grow out the babies in there...) Anyways i noticed just now that there are very very tiny jumping creatures... Much much smaller then the hatched baby red cherry shrimp, maybe about 1/5th the size of a new born red cherry shrimp, they move very fast, in almost a jumping motion, but they are under the surface of the water... ive only noticed them in this small area of the tank... but perhaps the rest of the tank is just to big for me to see them... Would anyone know anything about my two issues?

Do you have any Nerite snails? If not, they might be a fresh water limpet.

I do have 2 nerite snails that i just added in about a week ago... But dont limpets move...

and yes i know its overstocked... i got carried away... its hard to say no when you find a store that has no idea that they are selling electric blue rams at 7 bucks by accident...
 
Nertites 100% ... My tank is covered in them.. and they are a PIta to get off even your glass.

generally they won't hatch unless in brackish water, and are like tiny peices of cement.

Ahhhhh the one thing i didnt google, musta slipped my mind since i just got them. Yea thats them exactly. Good call.

I just noticed small tiny tiny white worms in my shrimp hatching hangoff... they look like miniature pinworms... white straight and maybe 1mm also i noticed a shrimp like creature, bout the size of baby brine shrimp, it shoots away super fast, but upon closer inspection it has a body shape of a triangle with two small circles at where the two edges would be... Anyone know what those are?? They are way to small to take pictures off...

the general shape is
