Quick run down. I have a 20 gallon extra high tank that cycled with Kupang live rock and live sand for seahorses (that I haven't gotten yet). I have a peppermint shrimp (has shedded 5 times) blue hermits and turbo snails in this tank. I also had a firefish that died after three weeks from what I thought was Lymphocyctis (It looked the closest to pictures I found). She died about a month ago.

This morning, I found about two dozen white, pinhead sized dots with tails floating around the tank. When they reached the top, they would swim around the surface. I am now afraid that the white spot on the side of my firefish wasn't a cyst but an egg sack instead. :eek2:

Any ideas? Any sites with pictures of newly hatched stuff so I can take a guess? Here is the best of pictures I tried to take. You can see at least one clearly. Ooops, the server of where my picture is posted is down. Will get it as soon as possible.

Hope someone can help me.
