can anyone identify several very small white dots with aprox 12-15 hairy tenticles found on my glass. Pin head size. Legs viewed with magnifier.

sounds like hydroid jellyfish. i forgot what they are actually called. Cladonema jellyfish maybe. do they look like this?

they are harmless and will go away on their own.

I've noticed that same thing on my glass from time to time. No idea what it is though.
