Saltwater roach?

Sorry no picture. Unable to catch these guys.

About 3 weeks ago I saw some "pods" floating around my tank. White 1-3mm L 1mm W. Caught a couple and there seems to be nothing in them when I press. Tonight saw two things that were tan/brown and fast! One sccuried to grap some food under a coral base. The other grabbed some food and disappered as I ran for the turkey baster. What might these be? I see the pods attached inside the skimmer.

Am I being over-run by pod creatures?

I have 2 mithryx crabs, 2 cleaner shrimp, 3 peppermint shrimp, various red leg and blue dwarf hermits. It couldn't be from any of them could it?

I would say they are probally just scuds.
