Need some help - small white worms?

[MarkHammel]

Hello all - this is my first post.

I have a 55g that has 55 lbs or LR. It's FOWLR.

Contents: Clark's Clownfish, Cleaner Shrimp, Fiddler Crab, 6 stripers Wrasse, Chromes, and a Damsel --- and 5 snails.

This morning, I noticed what looks to be very very small white worms on the back glass. I mean they are very tiny but you can pick up on a small curled pattern. Any ideas on what this is?

Thanks.

Upon further review... they actually look like they could be baby snails. I have 5 snails (not sure of the exact species). Is it common for saltwater snails to reproduce?

google some images of Spirorbid Worms, im betting thats what you have. harmless little filter feeders.

some species of snails will reproduce in the tanks easily, while most of the ones you buy do not.

sounds like copopods if they look like snails--a pic would be great

Ok, I think it is Spirorbid Worms.

This pic looks close to what I am seeing:

I tried to take some pics... but I couldn't get my digital camera to focus in on those little suckers. I did get an ok one of the tank though.
