    weird creature in my tank

    so in addition to new eggs, I noticed something wierd zipping in and out of the shadows of my main tank and have no idea what it is, it moves faster than a snail, but stays on the substrate I think. It's white and kinda translucent and almost 1/8" long, kinda looks like a half oval. unfortunately thats the best description I can give, because it doesn't stay still very long. anyone have any ideas?

    could these be copepods and are they bad for my aquarium?

    actually I now think these things are ostracods, they do burrow really quickly when you shine a light on them
