Totally a guess: Some sort of Disc worms?

I bet Darrel / @dw1305 would know.

Look like could be midge eggs

Thanks. Google searching agrees with you Steve. Better get some fish soon to eat some larvae.

I was looking at this on a small laptop screen - couldn't even tell it was eggs - lol.

Anyway, here is more info:

Chironominae Egg cases and reared juveniles

An online resource devoted to North American insects, spiders and their kin, offering identification, images, and information.

Thanks Michael. I did wonder if they were eggs but hard to believe a midge could lay that volume of eggs.
