little ants?

[dvlax40]

i have little bugs crawling on my sand near the glass and on my macro algae, some are drown some are rust colored, that are like oval and stuff, its weird,

Possibly check into flatworms. Don't stress out right away. Rust colored are bad for your corals, however the clear ones look a little "rust colored" due to eating copepods. Depending on how mature your tank is, most advice I have heard is that they will die off with the copepod population. Good luck.

if they look like ants they are probably a form pod. i have tons of them in my fuge

they are similar to this

You hit the nail on the head dvlax, they are ants. A marine form of carpenter ant to be precise. They're fun to watch, they will build tunnel systems in your substrate

I'm sorry, I know that doesn't help, I just couldn't resist

[dvlax40]

no they dont look like that, they are small and round

just a little help.... I have in my photobucket most of the common hitchikers and bugs... here is the link, check out the pics and hopefully you will find what your talking about. I also am leaning towards flatworms since you said they are a rust color.
I am not sure if this link works so please let me know. The album should be set so anyone can view it. There are 4 pages of critters.

[dvlax40]

[dvlax40]

they are either chitons, or red bugs, how do i get rid of them

Must be chitons if they were red bugs they would be on your sps.
