First picture is the critters on the glass. They are to small for the phone camera so the second is the micro scope. There are a lot these critters on the glass. Tank is about a month old and just quarantining a wrasse and goby for observation. No corals, macro algae, just rock and sand in a 30L IM Nuvo. They stick to the glass pretty well but I can blow them off with a pipette if i try hard enough and they go sailing into the tank.

Any ideas?

Copepods? Hard to believe as everything was sterile going in with the exception of two small marine pure blocks I took from my larger more mature tank. And a wrasse who must prefer prepared foods over these critters.....
