Can someone identify a few things?
In waiting to complete our tank, there are few things that I haven't seen before...
Little tiny white swirls with something that looks like a feather duster at the end of the swirl, Little tiny star looking things stuck to the glass, Little bugs but they have more of a straight body and a bunch of legs with maybe two little antenae? kind of looks like a tiny centiped with out the segmented body (sp), it kind of hard to explain. There are also some little orangish red, oval shaped bugs. All I know is that I have a ton of bugs in here. The refugium walls look like they are moving... I tried to get some close ups, but had no luck. I can't figure out this darn camera ugh.

The tiny stars are just that....mini stars....ipsf sells them as part of their live sand kit whatever they call it. The worms youre describing, if theyre a orangeish color sounds like a bristleworm to me, and the tiny feather dusters are just that. I too have those, wish theyd get bigger because they have really bright colors. The bugs youre describing are most likely copapods/amphipods. Good luck.

The little stars on the glass are probably hydroids, there harmless & a good sign.
Most of the bugs are probably various pods, all these are good. Munnid Isopods Copapods Amphipods

The little swirls are a small type of feather duster

These are often said to be centipede like, also good to have.
Bristle Worms
