Hey guys, does anyone recognize this little guy? I’ve had an explosion in their numbers and I’m not sure I’ve seen it before. Assuming some sort of amphipod? Varies in sizes, typically around 1-3mm.
Happy thanksgiving!

Also looks like 3 Medusa hydroids above the ruler around the 130mm mark, + a big one top of first image where the ruler has mm marked.

Yup, I was able to ID the hydroids. Tank is running fallow right now due to velvet getting in so I’m not surprised the pods are flourishing. Thanks all!
