Are these amphipods? Copepods?

I doubt it's fish. Tanks only been running for just shy of a month. Shrimp....possibly? I have three peppermint shrimp, one was looking very fat the past few days, she came in as a hitchhiker on my live rock. That would be very cool in that's what they are. How long do they take to grow to recognizable size, if they are shrimp?
 
Mysid shrimp. They look really good. They tend to hitchhike on live rock and come into aquariums that way. Great live food for marine fish, especially seahorses and pipefish.
