speks on my glass

[jwill275]

I noticed yesterday on one side of my 125 tank white specks on the glass. I took out my magnifying glass and had to look through the super magnifier in the glass to see what appears to be some type of bug. My first thought was a flatworm but these are whitish in color and like I said very tiny. Any idea what it may be?

copepods tank is at about 3-6months old I'm guessin they are benifical and a sign that your tank is maturing

Do they move around or are they "attached" to the glass?

There just pods, which are great! Be very very thankful they arn't flatworms!

if they are attached to your glass, they are worms but beneficial worms and nothing to be worried about.
I have a ton of them... they tend to form clusters around powerheads on the glass.
