    If it kind of looks like soap bubbles then it is time for a water change it means you have a lot of disolved minerals and other fun stuff building in your tank. Happens in overstocked or tanks where the nitrate or PH is real high from what I have observed. Also see it in SW and hardwater tanks.

    If hey are firm and hard then they could be snail eggs to quite a few different things. If I remember right you have a Guroumi and it could be his bubble nest.

    Hard water and High mineral concentration can cause the bbble to form.
