Strange White Deposits on Live Rock


I noticed several of these strange white sesame seed shaped deposits on the live rock. Anybody have a clue of what they are? I posted several pictures along with new tank shots! Thanks.

I have a handful of turbos and about 15 or so Narssarius snails.

Look like Turbo snail eggs to me. My hubby has some in his tank. They lay eggs on the rocks and on the silicone next to the overflow.
