Identifying Eggs

Hello, I'm new here - first time poster but long time watcher! I have been keeping and breeding catfish for several years

I've never bred Corys before though and I am trying to identify some eggs in my tank and if they belong to the corys OR if they belong to some small snails that have decided to colonise the tank!
They are small and clear and held together in a sort of jelly-sack attached to plant leaves. There are rather a lot of them spread all over the tank and they have been there for about a day but are not changing colour. If they are Cory eggs I'lll leave them and see what happens but if they are snail eggs I'm going to remove them.
I have 5 corydoras similis in my 22 gallon tank - 3 females and 2 males
any advice would be great! thanks

I can't be sure without pics, but by the description they sound like snail eggs to me.

hmmmm, I thought so
I think I will remove them to be on the safe side - I don't really want a huge snail colony
thanks!
