I did a 90% water change and I don't see anything but time will tell!

ok there are still a few and i do think they are the water fleas, they are small white and jump around! how do I get rid of them????

Are they in the water or on top of the water?

Either way, they are harmless. Reduce feeding and the population will starve out.

they are jumping in the water, will reduce feedings and see what happens! Thanks!

Then you are probably correct with your identification of daphnia (water fleas).

Sorry I didn't post this sooner but maybe it'll help in the future.

While searching for something I came across this site. It's got lots of pictures for identifying critters in your tank.

My wife had them in her Convict tank. We thought they were Planaria too.

If they're jumping on the top, then they're springtails. Yummy white cloud food.
