What is this? Reminds me of tardigrades but I'm not too sure.

Thise are definitely tardigrades aka water bears aka space fleas

I didn't think they were because of the stringy bits of their backs. Are there different types?

Yes! And those filaments are typical for that group of tardigrades (called Echiniscoidea)
