Any one knows what these little pods are?
They are about the size of a copepod.
They move but I can't really see legs or a front or
end..

Looks like a flat worm, but hard to tell, a picture might do better.(unless this is what it looks like to you, in which case, kill them with fire lol)

Hmm don't really look like a flatworm..
After many attempts I managed to capture one (find it in the liquid of the seringe is a pain xD) and put it under a microscope.
