So I have all these white things all over my glass. I'm not 100% on what they are as they dont really move except for in the flow. I got a picture if anybody has any idea as to what it is.

Looks like copepods in the pics.Could be some kind of tube worm too.

It's kind of hard to see in your picture...
Do they move around? Like are they rooted and they wave in the water or are they actively moving on their own?

They seem to be rooted, and that was why I was slightly concerned. They wave in the current and they only seem to be on the front and back glass, but not the sides. Originally thinking pods, but they aren't moving, there looks to be hundreds of them. Thoughts?

I would go with Yote's tube worm if they're rooted...

Update! So it seems as though a bunch of them are connected be what looks like a spider web. Does that help with the ID?

Yeah it does.Those are vermetid snails.They use the webs to capture food particles.

I don't think so guys. There are way too many and they came out of no where. I'm going to leave it alone for now and see what happens. I'll keep you guys updated
