Need help identifing this bug With pictures!

Hey guys i looked through the net and on RIU and can't find out what this fucking bug is! I got some pic's they are blury due to the little fucker not staying still for me! I took these pic's at 100 magnifacation with my eyeclopse. They are on the top and bottom of my leaves and they are a redish brown color. I havn't added any new ladies to the room for a little bit and it is only on one plant that I can find them on. I use FFOF soil, I do reuse my hydroton rocks, I rinse them out outside so maybe they came in from there. I live in the North West also if that helps. Thanks for any help!

Just bumping to see if anyone has any ides!

It was a pain in the ass getting those! The damn thing kept crawling around on me and I killed one and couldn't get a good pic! The only time I could get a good pic was when it was on it's back but the legs were flying around making the pic blury. Thanks for checking in brotha!

Edit I take that back, based on the size you are describing, they sound and look more like spider mites to me. What do the leaves look like?

Yeah it does a little. These things are tiny! I am going to get some pesticide and ladybugs tomorrow! First bug problem and I am pissed! At least it's not spider mites! "knock on wood" Thanks billcollector!

Those aren't spidermites...their legs are more spiderlike. Looks like some kinda beetle to me. spidermite destroyer or something along that line

Going to hydro shop tomorrow and see if they have some shit to get rid of these lil pests!

Yo Howard, if you can put up a picture of any leaf damage that was caused, i could better tell you what that is.

Is there white spotting on the tops of the leaves?

Assuming its something more common, there are aphids that come in red. That was my initial guess, and I did a google image search and saw some similar looking shaped bugs. Then I started getting the heebie jeebies and had to stop searching.

my guess is clover mites.
aphids look like little grasshoppers to me.

clover mites are known to be pretty harmless to a grow
