Copepods in coral QT

[Kraig]

I have a 10g coral qt going with a few softies and a candy cane coral. I've noticed what I believe are copepods in there after about 2 weeks (very tiny white dots moving around on the glass and frag rack.

I'm pretty sure this won't cause any issues, but haven't come up with a good answer from google search.

Just want to get some reassurance. No issue correct?

I've never had issues with copepods. I think you're good .

People will debate all day about amphipods, which I believe are willing to eat healthy coral.

Been reefing for a while and have never had an issue or "too many pods"

There will be no issues with them in the tank.

The coral eat the copepods, not the other way around

As someone that does this for a living you have ZERO worries about copepods or amthipods in your QT system. Honestly look at as a benefit
