    I was watching my fuge the other day admiring all the copepods and britsleworms and stars when I noticed something right in front of my face.The timest little creatures "buzzing" around just abone the sand.These things are tiny I mean you have to really look close to see them at all.Well they are in the thousands.The further up from the sand you go the thimmer the swarm becomes.Today is like alomost a week since I saw them first and they are still there in the same numbers.Theres no chance of even my HD camcorder picking them up for a pic.
    Anybody got any ideas?The copepods are at least 10 times larger than these things !!

    I suspect they are just another species of pods.
