Amphipods?

[ctopherl]

Are these amphipods? Or something else?

I haven’t added a coral in 6+ months. The only wet thing added recently were some pre-QT fish. I did add a batch of pods from algae barn 3-4 months ago and I’m hoping that’s all these are. I saw one of these maybe 1-2 months ago, and just discovered a group of them in my refugi

I haven’t noticed any bite marks on any corals.

Pods of some sort. Likely Amphipods. Not all amphipods can or will cause any damage to your reef. Frankly, I have never had any pod munch on polyps. If you can get one out, magnify, or microscope photo, we would be able to properly identify. I wouldn't worry.
