Hard to see, but a guess is diatom algea.

I dont think so because they are all individual about a quarter of an inch each.

My friend, meet flatworms... I just found a bunch in my tank as well. They look like little flakes of algae. Check out my post and photos and Kips post called: Flatworm Exit Success so far!
you can also read my recent post b/c I just did a flatworm exit.
Good luck!

I highly recommend that you kill them asap.

Thanks all for the info. I am getting flatworm exit tommarow and I have been sucking them out with a turkey baster.While I am at it,anyone know if these squigly white lines is related to the issue ? Also my coral beauty died.Does that have to do with it as well ? thanks

squiggly lines are snail eggs, and are probably good to have.
The snail eggs, the death of your angel (sorry, that stinks), and the flatworms are all completely unrelated.
