What do you think this is? I had many pods, but only started seeing these guys after I switched from frozen brine shrimp to frozen mysis shrimp. Any chance something survived freezing? Or maybe their eggs? I catch them swimming sometimes. They are fast and aggressive for good. Bigger ones in the filter chambers...

Interesting. It is much larger than the type of amphipods that I see in the tank. Then again I don't really know what i'm looking at most of the time....
