copepods, isopods or amphipods...

they are small crustaceans, fish love them!

Thanks, any idea how to get rid the fish cant get to them as there in the substrate?
 
if you dont have any shrimps or atrent planning on getting any for a while, a copper based medication will kill them off, you can take a dropper or turkey baster and squirt it into the substrate where they hang out..
