I can't really see this clearly. Maybe it's my monitor though.

I occasionally see these on anubias leaves if they have been grown emersed!
Some sort of spent egg casing I think?
Rinse off with tapwater...use a old toothbrush to dislodge if stubborn to remove.
Inspect your order for more hidden hitchhiker's, sometimes there can be the odd worm🪱 lurking

It is the egg-coccoon of a species of small spiders, often living in nursery greenhouses. Will not survive submersed.
