Found some critters in the sock!

I've been finding these little shrimp looking guys in the filter sock lately. At first glance i thought they could be clown babies because of the color. But I'm pretty sure they're some sort of copepod, right? Or baby amphipod? They kind of twitch around sometimes in the container too...

looks like ghost shrimp to me but I could be wrong....

A baby shrimp or a baby crab.

It's just some kind of pod. I used to try to rescue them. I usually have 1 or 2 in my sock.

If they are in your sock, they should be everywhere in your system, nothing bad, just free CUC and live food, signs of a healthy system

Ya they're tiny, much smaller than the mysis I feed. I usually see a good hundred or so, sometimes a lot more

I used to turn the sock over and shake them out.
