I bet it's not pods if they are floating around in the water column.
I get lots of "it" if i shake the biomesh thing in my HOB (nothing else in it , its just 80 gph of flow), and/or if it stir the live rocks, especially the tiny ones in the fuge, then the water is almost cloudy, but not cloudy like stirring the sand does.

Probably just detritus.

Do you see any crawling around on the glass? Primarily on the water line at the top, the top of the substrate, in areas where you can't clean the glass well, in the corners?
The only thing i see there are little slug looking things about the size of this underscore _ or so. They seem to have some kind of antenna like snails but they aer very tiny and have no shells.

Hi, sorry to hijack, but i have literally hundreds of them all over the glass. they do crawl on glass and the water itself has them floating by the thousands, preventing clear water quality. they are the width of a human hair and maybe a 1/32" in length. Any ideas?

Chris, make sure those aren't flatworms. Not food for the tank.
pch, no clue.
