My guess is that you have mini-brittle stars. I clean/switch my overflow 'sock' once a week and usually find six or so inside. Has anyone seen those tiny things stickin outta holes that look like a brittle star arm?...That is exactly what it is.

Here is a website King of the Sea has resently shown me. http://www.xtalworld.com/Aquarium/hitchfaq.htm
