I can't tell by the pictures but if they look like little white ants, they're probably Isopods. I have tons of them and they don't hurt anything. Good food source for lots of different fish.

Be careful though some Isopods are not so nice and have been known to eat corals and even fish. Do a little research on what type you have and keep an eye on them. But like I said the ones that I have look just like little ants too and I have thousands of them, but the ones I have, have behaved so I'm pretty sure I have the harmless kind.
