Looks like some kind of pod. Take a look at the top where the eyes would be. If it has tiny black eyes it's probably a parasite (Cirolanid Isopod). If not it's probably benign.

Not seeing any eyes at all and they don't appear to be bothering anything

Do you have better pics? Do they in fact have legs? It looks like they do, but if not they look kinda like stomatella snails....
