Dude...you're still alive! I was worried for a bit....
 
Welcome back man! So...do you have any live plants in your crested tank? Because they might just be some type of plant mite. If there the nasty kind go with Reptech's method of killing them.
 
I used to see those when i worked at petco. Never on any animals, but under dishes/rocks/decor in humid enclosures. Especially when prepared food was in the dishes, they would be found under and around the dish. Also in cages where there were too many animals and wasn't cleaned often enough.
