Very very tiny snail like critter on the glass.

I've had these really tiny slug like critters on my glass for over a week now and was wondering if they were good or bad guys. I couldn't get a very good picture of them because of their small size. I included a small mini star so you can see just how tiny they are. I've had nassarius snails lay eggs in the past many time so I am hoping that is what they are. Corals and fish seem to be just fine.

Do they move slow and methodically? If so, probably flatworms.

Do they dart around? Then possibly copepods.

Add anything new in the last month or two, like new rock?
 
They do move very slow on the glass, but they don't look like the flatworm picture. They are more pointed on what I would assume is the rear. (opposite moving end)
 
The individuals on the upper right of the photo especially look like flatworms to me, but not the dreaded red ones. I'd try siphoning them out just in case.
 
Could be baby stomatella snails, but it's hard to tell from the pix. Hopefully not flatworms, though.
