They are perfectly normal. You will probably start seeing thousands of them. They will decline in numbers over time.

You have a lot of food floating around in your water, so their population increased. They are filter feeders, they are perfectly normal and only a sign that you have LOTS of particulate in your water.

As your tank settles and particulate is pulled out, their population will adjust.
 

When to mix up fish meal: When was the last time you tried a different brand of food for your reef?
