So I came from work today and noticed a bunch of these tiny white 'snail' looking things stuck to my glass. They're crawling pretty slow, and I can even see the tiny shells.

Should I be concerned?

I'm housing 3 red belly piranhas
 
Limpets? If so, nope. Doesn't sound parasitic and parasites needed a fish to host anyway to stay alive for days and even weeks.
 
i'll take a picture if they get back onto the glass, but no... they just seem like a bunch of tiny snails
 
ostracods (seed shrimp)- do they have a slightly flattened appearance to their shell and appear mainly transparent with a central nucleus?
 
um, kinda? I'll take a pic asap. so yea, i have quite a bit of them stuck on my glass now...
are ostracods bad?
