WHAT on EARTH is this, PLEASE?

HI,
I woke up this morning an found TWO of these in my tank, when I cleaned the one off the glass it was slimy, not stringy like it looks! What is is and what do I do about it?
I am also battling with Aptaisa, I bought Joes juice but it didnt get them all, its a small bottle. AND It seems like they are just popping up everywhere, Im ready to give up!
I have NEVER had such problems.. tanks is now like 4 years old.
Thanks in advance.. Kim
HELP!! :help:
OK whats with the NOT being able to post pics again.. UGH!!
I will try to explain then post when I can...
White in color, It looks like a stitch you would see from a sewing machine about 3 inches in length and 1/4 in thick attached to the glass. also one on a coral skelaton...
I will try to post, sorry...

It sounds exactly like snail eggs, and when you scrape them off, they kind of stick together in a guey mess.
The whole Aiptasia thing is an aweful battle. I finally went to biological controls in order to keep mine at bay. I went with the copperband butterfly fish. The only misfortunate thing is, they are hell on fanworms. It was worth it to get them out of there. I tried Berghia once, but they failed to get all of them int he tank before they disappeared. It didn't take long for the Aiptasia to re populate.
 
thanks a bunch, snail eggs make like a stitch "pattern" of long length ?? Hmmm. Really S**cks that we cant post p;ics UGH..
Hey Mediator, when will it be fixed???
UGH about aptaisia..
Thanks again, Kim
