Are these Flukes??

I have been dealing with flukes for a month now and used Prazipro with no success. Freshwater baths have helped but only temporary so yesterday i removed all fish and put in QT and did a fenbendazole 12 hour bath. The main tank is now fallow and will remain for at least 30 days however i just noticed hundreds of little white things crawling all over the glass. Are these flukes looking for a host which cant find without any fish in the tank?

Either copepods or flat worms but I can't tell from the pic. Flukes live on the fish, not on the glass.

Not flukes, you woukdnt be able to see them in tank. Prazi if does correctly would kill them but if doing in DT depending on size and scape is hard to calculate correct dosage. Flukes cant live more than a couple days (36hrs) without a host so with egg cycle 10 days is all that needed to ensure they are dealt with.

After further review and discussion looks like these are copepods.

So my shrimp, starfish, urchins, snails and coral cant be a host of the flukes correct? They are still in my DT.
