tiny lice looking things?

Postby Kanundra » Tue Sep 27, 2011 3:33 pm

Hey everyone,

So cleaning the qt today and for the first time noticed tiny little creatures attached all over the sides of the tank. They look like little lice things, prob 8 legs, but microscopic... These aren't attaching themselves to the fish are they? baby fish that is?

I've never seen anything like it before. Worms and fly larve, but not little white creatures.

Any ideas? they're too small for me to take pictures.
