Any idea what this is? Good? Bad? Nuetral? Sorry for the poor quality had to zoom and crop.

Hard to tell for sure as it’s kind of blurry but most likely just an amphipod and nothing to worry about - I’m guessing it’s a newish set up ? Are you dosing anything ? I have a larger amphipod population in my reef always like to run this way as well as lots of copepods as they eat detritus / algae and are also fish food (mandarins and many wrasse especially)

Its a seeded block from a LFS, broke it into a few pieces so it will fit in my AIO. Put it in a bucket to observe before throwing it in. Good or bad idea?
