Do you have any Nerites? Could be snail eggs.
Otherwise probably a common type of invertebrate. Not sure if they are snail or worms, but basically they grow a spiral-shaped shell on the glass and then live in it. Usually if anything commonly moves across the glass (especially a glass scraper... :laugh
they never have a chance to get established. I have them all over my overflows, since nothing bothers to clean those. They don't harm anything.

They don't harm anything.the white I know they are little snails eggs ma not worried about that is the green circles their hard like coralline algae but olive green in color , the little critters a'm talking about are to small to see cant show you maybe they'll disappear soon what your seeing in the picture is the back glass
The little critters sound like copepods but hard to say for sure without a picture. If it is copepods they are harmless and sometimes desirable (it is extremely difficult to keep Dragonets without them).
The green stuff is most likely exactly as you say, coralline algae but olive green. There are a variety of coralline algaes, with a full range of colors.

You probably introduced something awhile back with green coraline growth. I have purple spots in mine because I had live rock and snails with it.
If they are too small to photo they are mostly likely pods or hydroids (jellyfish). If the later, they will not survive long. How old is this tank?
