I have what appears to be about 10 freshwater copepods in my Xenopus laevis 10 Gallon aquarium. I'm just wondering if these are going to be a problem at all, and if so, should I clean the entire tank out?? I currently have three Anubias hastifolia and Anubias nana and one ACF in the tank. I can't really get a high enough resolution picture of the "copepods", in order to actually see them as they are really tiny. Any help is appreciated.

They sound like they might be either freshwater copepods called cyclops, http://www.microscopy-uk.org.uk/mag//imagsmall/copepod.jpg or water fleas http://barbsandbacklashes.files.wordpress.com/2010/02/daphnia.jpg
Both can be used as fish food.

Yeah, they look like cyclops. They won't overpopulate and cause problems though, being as I only have one frog in the tank??
