Are moving white spots in tank bad?

[legos36]

Anyone knows what these mobile white spots are? They're mostly found on the glass walls, on the sandbed and interestingly only on my red digitatas. On the digi, they somehow form some sort of "web". Wondering if these guys are bad or beneficial :/ any advice would be great! Thank you!!

Was intrigued too, after googling abit, they might be ostracods?

@jmw yeah I think they are too! If they are then I think it’s fine. It’s just they look really gross when they gather together

How is there so many, no fish in your system?

[legos36]

@Breadbox hmmm there's one cleaner wrasse and one maroon clown. But they don't seem to eat it tho ): they're all over the tank now.

[Breadbox]

Uh, does your cleaner wrasse eat anything if I may ask?

[legos36]

@Breadbox Hmmm.. it does nibble at things around the tank but i'm not sure what exactly its nibbling at. It will also nibble at other fishes but not in an aggressive manner; more like cleaning the other fish up.
