Acro bug

[Brooks Allman]

Hi all,
I bought a cheap microscope online and dipped an acro that I’ve seen little grey bugs on. A few came off and I’ve included the photos. They move exactly like copepods. Any ideas on what these are? No STN or RTN. They look like they live in the coralites and seem to make the PE less noticeable.
