White specks on glass

[sos]

Hello All, need help in identifying what these are ?? good or bad ? Didn’t scrape glass today and there is a thousand white spots on the glass seem to be eating the film of algae ? Please advise

I just looked at my tank and noticed I have something similar (on the glass right across from the filter/where the filter flow is) except mine are like 1mm stringy things and there’s a couple of what looks like baby anemones or something which are about 1mm in diameter or smaller

got a pic? just based on your description though I'm thinking medusa stage hydroids, spirobid worms or some kinda pods.

Ok That’s what I thought ! Didn’t think they would come out like that

I circled the little anemone looking things, I’ll try to get a better pic tomorrow. The little stringy things are a little easier to see in the pic but it’s hard to get it to focus with all of the bubbles
