I recently purchased some chaeto online which promised to include alot of critters seeing I am trying to get my fuge going. After just one week with it in my fuge I have literally hundreds of little tan hair like insects? on the surface of the water. They scoot around and jump at the edge of the water frequently getting themselves stuck on the glass. The glass ends up looking like there is dirt all over it at the waterline. This insects are about 1/32 of a inch long so pictures are out of the question. They don't seem to live long as there are alot dead on the glass and in clumps floating on the water surface.
Does anyone know what they are, what they eat and are they something to worry about? How do you get rid of them?
Thanks in advance for any help!
