sand critters

[Rich]

Last thursday I added 80 lbs of argonite white sand in a 55g.
Monday after every thing settled I noticed 50 little white specs on the glass. Some of them would bounce around or move in circles. I don' know what they are. Will they go away? Is it part of the sand critters?

Currently in the tank:

4 yellow tail blue damsels
1 red & white shrimp
6 blue legged crabs
6 astaire snails
15 lbs of LR

Hi ya Rich,

Don't worry about them, in all likelyhood they are some sort of pod & a good thing! If you are curious to find out exactly what they are I suggest you try here http://www.rshimek.com/animal_identifications1.htm Welcome to a wonderful new world
