They might be snail eggs.

to be honest,they are so small,i dont know if a camera could focus on them.all i can say is,they are like a tiny collection of clear bubbles,some look like they are connected to the glass by a small single thread of bubbles,they move with the flow of water and are getting everywhere.

Could be snails' eggs as Laura said. Have a look at these images and see if anything matches.

You're cycling at the moment arent you? If so then it's either ammonia poisoning or lack of food as with no fish there's not much for them to eat.
