Little white bugs

I actually encountered a coepod outbreak a few months ago. They were on every square inch of the glass. I had so many I thought I had an infestation of them, but there nothing to worry about. Mine vanished within 3 days. Your fish should love this cycle. On a side note, if you can see a tiny little tail, then they are coepods.
 
Yeah, in my 45g, my pods went nuts on my glass when I moved all my fish and only had snails left in there. Since there were no predators around to eat them, they took advantage of the freedom. Just think of them as more food for fish :) That's how some reefers are able to get away with just 1-2 feedings a week (and in some cases, per month!) -- because they have an abundance of pods.
 
Think of em as free coral/fish food and clean up crew.:D
Thats one of the signs of a healthy tank too.
