Plenty of Pods

I use the fuge section of my sump to hold live rock and rummaging through to find some rocks to mount frags to I saw all this movement in the back corner. They looked like an army of Ants, I assume they are small copepods there were actually larger pods walking through them so maybe babies? anyways pretty stoked I had never seen this and thought they looked neat so here is a quick video of the critters.

All from liverock, I had to run fallow for three months to rid the tank of ich and the DT was covered in Pods the second month but half way through the third month they started disappearing, nothing for them to feed on I guess and have not seen many at all in the DT now that I am back up and running but I think that is about to change :)
