Do you have any Nerite snails in your tank? Because those white things look like Nerite snail egg cases.

George,

Could they be forams? FWIW, at one point I had something similar going on in my tank but slowly it just all went away. I did not have any Nerites at the time but I do now,though

I agree with you on the egg cases and I've seen mine lay them on the glass, looks close for sure but in case he does not have them in his tank...
