I'm probably wrong though. I just compared the ones in my turtle tank with a google images one and they looked about the same. (Body shape, not details)
They don't seem like too much of a problem though. All those parasites ever did was hang around some turtle crap untill I cleaned the tank. They seem to come and go. But I wouldn't worry about it too much.
I bought some plants just before my Betta's spawned and my tanks is now full of tiny bugs just like what I am seeing here. Not sure what they are, but if there is tiny food to keep them alive, then I hope there is tiny food for the baby Bettas (2 days old now) to eat. I am still doing research to find out what they are.
I found all kinds of things in my tank after buying plants too. Let me know what you find out. I have had all kinds of people give me all kinds of answers.. I think all of my critters are gone now.
I have the same things, also after putting new plants in my tank. Had them adn some apple or ram-horn snails appearing to...

I think they're water fleas?

What do your tiny bugs look like? Were you able to find out what they were?

I have seen several really small critters swimming in my tanks too.
I think maybe a parasite,some kind of nasty little water insect?
Don't know.....
Interesting
