I had those when I first set up my tank...they will go away just sort of a pod I called them spaceships.As they sorta look like a capsule from nasa when you see it from the side view.

Cool, how big do they get?

I've only seen pictures, but I don't think they get much bigger than an eraser on a pencil. Unfortunately once free swimming, they tend to meet their end rather quickly inside your circulation equiptment.

I had them in my 3.5 pico for a long time. (low flow)
Once I upgraded to my to 10 Gal they only lasted for a month or so in the new higher flow.
