Today when I got home from school my glass was a little more cloudy than usual, and my water also looked a little more cloudy as well. I went up to the glass and saw white translucent critters that resembled copepods darting around, should I be worried? Also there’s a lot more than I feel like there should be (~5-10 per square inch, also there’s no pictures because I couldn’t get a good one)
