I recently noticed little white "bugs" in the substrate of my tank. After research I believe them to be copepods, but I'm not sure. I did a few huge water changes and vacuumed the substrate and cleaned the glass and they were almost all gone. I went away for three days and I had my fiance feeding only 1 small feeding per day and this morning when I got home I noticed there are more now then there were before and now they are on my fish. If the fish swim away fast the bugs fall off but anytime they go into the plants to look for some food they come out with some stuck to them.
What is this? Is it bad for the fish? How can I get rid of it?
Also please correct me if I'm wrong. I'm not sure they are copepods but its really all I can figure.
