So i was cleaning out my filter media today and i found some strange white looking bug that resembled a flea. I only found two inside the filter. Havent checked the water inside the tank but i assume they are in there too. If anybody would have any idea what these could be i would be greatly thankful.

No...but i think i have narrowed it down to a Copepod. It is white with 6ish legs antennae on both ends. i read they usually come from live rocks or sand, but the only new thing i have introduced to my tank is freeze dried krill...could they have had eggs on the krill?
looks like a scud...its a type of fresh water shrimp, they hitch hick on plants..fish love to eat them.
Ah yes..that does seem to be it. but what i dont get is where they came from...i havent added anything new.
