Re: not really an emergancy but wanna know
They look like amphipods, kinda hard to tell in your pic though unless you can get a macro shot with better focus.

Re: not really an emergancy but wanna know
I've seen these in my tank before too. I'm not sure, but I think they might be tunicates.

Re: not really an emergancy but wanna know
I think this link may answer your question.
InvertIDFAQ5 The only other thing I can think of is pineapple sponges. A closer look would be helpful. Either way, they are harmless.

Re: not really an emergancy but wanna know
Thinking about it more, I agree with the tunicate/sponge idea. Noway amphipods would be up there and out like that.
