Hello all just wondering if these are amphipods or something else and should I be considered? There are TONS floating around in my tank and I just saw them tonight after lights out. I don’t see them during the day at all and they’re all just floating about, not on the sand bed at all. They practically fill up my entire 45 gal AIO

could also be fish fry, but less likely.

They'll be yummy food for all sorts of things.
Good find, not a concern.
Cool! Hopefully this means my tank is maturing and becoming stable because it’s only 4 months old rn. Finally starting to see some pink coralline algae on some of my snails and frags
