A bunch of little critters in my tank

[tybud]

Recently I noticed tons of little (1 mm) white "critters" all over the glass and riser tubes. They have a oblong body with little wirey filaments off one end. I just introduced a 4 eyed butterfly and want to get an anenome and a pair of Percula Clowns. Anybody have an idea what they might be. They are not on the fish and the fish are healthy.

You have a reef tank? These are copepods, perfectly normal and desirable!
