Hey everyone, turned only blue light on today for the first time and I noticed around 20-30 small things swimming in the tank. I'm not sure what they are. I know the tank has some small coepods but is that what these are? Video at this link http://screencast.com/t/yeaT6JAIthey can be pretty fast if they want to. Some of them were swimming in very fast circles. Appreciate any help guys.

Hard to tell for sure, I am guessing Epitoke of bristle worms, or mysis shrimp.

Maybe...maybe. I did put some live Mysis shrimp in the tank a LONG time ago but I thought it would be impossible that any survived and reproduced...
