Parasite? or some unknown creature?
I recently added cherry shrimp and some ramhorn snails from my friends tank... then i noticed some clear thing stuck on the wall of my aquarium. its diameter is roughly half a cm. the thing is round shaped clear stuck on the wall and has 3-5 large circles on the surface. the first day i thought it was just some random crap and scraped it off but now i noticed 3 more. im pretty sure it was from the snails because i added some to a small isolation tank and i noticed that one appeared in it today. it could be from the cherry shrimp... it was shipped in a bag and i noticed something similar stuck on the surface of the bag. im trying to find a picture on google but i can't find it if i don't know wat it is...if i find a pict ill post it. plz help is it dangerous? how do i get rid of it?

Sounds like snail eggs this is a pic or more mature ones, but they start out clear before developing a little discernible color http://www.bettatude.com/Misc/red-rams-near-hatch....
This is a grouping of ealier stage eggs http://www.otocinclus.com/articles/graphics/snaile... but they basically appear as you describe, a clear mucusy blod on the walls and other surfaces, that develops little circles with in the clear blob.
Best of Luck!
