    impossible to take a picture of this, as they are WAY to small and can only be seen with a flashlight at a certain angle, but I am certain I have a population of some kind of invert in my fairly new 20 gallon tank.

    There is a deep and narrow cave in one of my peices of live rock, which is too dark to see into, yet when I shine a flashlight in this cave I see hundreds(?) of extremly tiny specs swimming around in a fluster. every time I look into is there seems to be more

    COPEPODS?

    p.s this peice of live rock came from an established tank.

    Probably. Do you see any white specs on the glass? Best way to describe them is like tiny white fleas on the glass LOL.
