Mites?

[Pabs]

My tank is currently cycling and has been for a couple of weeks now. I have spotted today thousands if not millions of tiny what i can only describe as mites crawling all over the glass of my tank. They are too small to get a pic of (i've tried). Any ideas what these are? should i be worried or will my clean up crew sort them out (when eventual get them)?
