Those should be very good things called scuds or pods. They are very beneficial to have and populate on their own. They should make it up into your DT, where your fishes can eat them. You pretty much cannot have too many of them. It's hard to tell from the pic - but I've seen thousands of little clearish/white tiny shrimp type bugs in my tanks, and they are great to have (if that;s what yours indeed are)
gammarid shrimps (scuds - usually <.2" long)
