Does anyone know what these microscopic opaque guys are on my new terrarium? I know what I want them to be. Hope the pictures help!

I’m not sure, but I can say that one of my terrariums has this all the time and it’s never caused any problems. Would be cool to know though

It looks like condensation collecting into a droplet and then trailing down the terrarium wall (guessing it’s path is wiggly because of temperature changes). But maybe I’m not looking at the right thing in this photo, hard to tell!

The path is up, down, circles etc. there’s definitely a little critter in there. I got a video of him but I can’t post videos.

Imgur it and just put the number without the link name / and what follows

Keep me posted if you find out. It’s interesting.
