Could they be Cyclops? I had cyclops appear in a tank during a fishless cycle, I think they came from a piece of driftwood. I took them to the science lab in the school I worked at and we looked at them under the microscope to figure out what they were. As soon as my cycle was finished and I added fish the cyclops disappeared.........a nice light snack! :p
