My QT tank has four or five very small white dots on the glass. They maybe 1 to 2 mm in size and do not appear to move. These dots look like very small, tight @ symbols.

I currently have two fish in the QT, a Ruby Red Dragonette and a Yellow Clown Goby. Both are doing very well.

I have seen many different pod species but I have never associated anything like this to being a copepod. I am going to go take a marker and put a dot on the glass right next to each of them and see if they move at all.
