Noticed a few nights ago some dust sized white bugs on my glass. Last night they were covering the glass. Thousands of them. Must have come in on the live rock or substrate I got from 2 separate LFS. Cant really get a picture due to how tiny they are but i cant find anything else they could be instead. 2 questions. Is there anything else it could be? If it is copepods should i be supplementing my tank with anything for them? Tank is still new with plenty of algae for them.

There numbers will even out on thier own. Common for new tanks to have an explosion of them in the beginning.
