take a flashlight at night and have a look... a lot of other night critters will come out that you would not see when the lights are on.
These , if one can see from the photo, is similar to what most people have in their tanks, especially if you shut down the pumps, even more will be visible.

These are the same bugs you were asking me about in my tank when you stopped by. I actually go to great lengths to keep their populations high. Great natural food for fish and they recycle waste in the process.

It's a sign of a healthy reef if you have lots of pods they come in all shapes and sizes and is a boon for most fish and several species of bottom feeders.
