i have all these little teeny tiny white things stuck to the inside of my glass, does anyone know what they are? they are very small and i cant tell what they are but some of the larger ones look they have a spiral shape...any help?

i had them in my tank before...i think i remember them being tiny tube worms or feather duster type things....either that or calcium deposits...can't remember for sure...haha guess that was not too much help afterall

 

[bschaible]

did you do anything to get rid of them at all?

This is probably yet another tube-dwelling polychaete from the Family Spirorbidae. It is yet another harmless filter-feeder that is common in reef aquaria. It is common for these worms to inhabit areas of high water flow, including your tank's plumbing. They readily reproduce via sexual means and often spread throughout the tank, and can generally be considered a sign of a healthy maturing tank
