So Theyre translucent light brown to light tan in color, not particularly quick, and itty bitty, only around the soil line

From what ive seen online and compared to under the micro i think they may be predatory mites, which are a good thing if im not mistaken, but its hard to be sure comparing from a micro to an image on the screen

hypoaspis possibly, they are good mites

I'm sure those bugs are long gone.

Edit, see there's a new guess my bug request.

I'd guess you have thrips, based on the description.
