Tiny, tiny white organism on tank

[zurc]

Hi,

I just noticed some very tiny white organism clinging on the side of my tank. It's so tiny that you have to look really close to the tank (about 3 inches away) to be able to see it... i noticed it closely swimming by the snail... what could that be??? should i be worried about it?

thanks,

Hi,

Probably you could be talking about pods (copepods or amiphipods)? Since you mention they are tiny and there are so many.

Pods are a good thing so no worry.
