Small fish will eat it.
The juggling apprentice fish
There are a lot more creatures living in our tanks then the animals we physically add. The ones introduced accidentally, usually via plants or from other tanks include snails, worms, insect larvae and these small white mite-like creatures... These are relatively harmless and are more likely to be a pain to look at... And as Squee mentioned, the small fish will eat them. Alternatively, just decrease your feeding and siphon away as many as you can see during a water change.

I'm crypt collecting... Starting cheap, now have Cryptocoryne beckettii, C.beckettii var petchii, C.crispatula var.balansae, C.griffithii(Melted!), C.nurii, C.parva, C.pygmaea(Melted!
Oh, juggling is hard work, man!...
i have those too. they could be water fleas/daphnia/rotifers/etc, which are usually found in freshwater pond ecosystems. they won't harm your fish. as mentioned above, the smaller fish will probably eat them
Thanks guy for all the update i just wonder whether it will harm the shrimps?
Beside using fishes to control the white dots is there any other way to stop all the white dots at one shot and with not harming the shrimps?
I don't think it will harm the shrimp either. Anyway I had never seen them since my tank are full of small fishes...Originally Posted by bbc_kingdom
Don't go adding medication to rid it... i'm an advocator of applying nature's formula to solve natural problems...
Tiger barbs are the small and cute enuff to be added into your tank to wack these little critters...
I find them to be really useful cleaning crew.. but when they cleanup all the white thingies.. they may turn on your tiggy shrimps.. unless you have alarge tank and there are many shrimp hiding holes...
Try tetras as well, as they will also eat up these white thingys..
Hopethis helps..
