Hey all!
I’ve noticed these small white dots floating in the top middle chamber of my Waterbox 20 sump. They seem to swim when I turn all flow off, and there is a ton of them, and also seemingly react when I shine light on them at night. They’re tiny, smaller than the tip of a pen, can see individual ones, but no where near big enough to make out any features. They are definitely longer shaped, and have a stretched oval shaped body. Not too sure exactly what it could be, first guess is copepods perhaps? I’ll attach photos, they’re just the floating white specks
My tank is roughly 2 months old, had a few LPS, soft corals, and a BTA in it, along with a coral banded shrimp and 2 clowns. All parameters roughly match NSW levels, but are stable. I’ve found aipstasia and mojanos, but nuked them with no signs of them growing back anywhere.
