ALSO...have a number of critters that are about 2-3 mm long running all over the place. Clear appearance...kinda look like little shrimps.

I'll post some pics later this week.
Congrats!

Sounds like you have some Feather Dusters & some pods

Yup, they are harmless, just let them be. If they get out of control, you can peel them off the rocks, or some fish naturally like to eat them.
