I had a frag that bleached out/RTN'd on one side today, and when I pulled it out of the tank to take a look at it, I saw what I thought might be Red Bugs.

So, I ran over to my friends LFS, and got this sample under a Microscope. They are not red bugs.

Note: These are smaller than a 1/16" copapod. Under the Microscope, the pods looked huge compared to these... things? They are fast movers, and seemed to irritate the pods. There were 3 tiny pods in the glass tray, and these things outnumbered them 3 to 1.
