little white bugs?
Ok, i have had my aquapod12 up and running since Feb. of 07. Everything has been going fine, have good corraline algae forming all over the place, and last night i took a flashlight when the lights were off to see my bristle worms, and in the sand i see a ton of little white bugs that are about 2-3mm in length. They were running all over the sand and the glass. what are these? They were so small to see, but i think they may have had at least ten legs. Bunker

Probably amphipods, good stuff, nothing to worry about.
