Any ideas?

Found these swimming in my sump.
Pods? Fry?

Mysid shrimp. Good things to have. Consider yourself lucky. Always wanted some.

I know it's a pain in the rear but can you catch one and put it in a sallow container.

I will try tonight. I’m catching a plane to San Diego so i’ll Be pressed for time.

Any shrimp in the tank?

Looks exactly like Mysid or opposum shrimp. Sorta uncommon these days but still pop up. Different than mysis in that theyre satwater.

I do agree...but ive also seen peppermint and cleaner shrimp babies in my lfs tanks.

Peppermint & cleaner shrimp larvae tend to drift aimlessly. These guys move like they know where they're going.

Agree with mysids.

Sorry for no reply guys, been out of town. Yes, I agree, looks like mysid shrimp. I take it these are good to have? No, no shrimp in the tank. Thanks for the help.

I was confused why you guys spelled it mysid (not mysis - like all the packaged fish food) so I googled it. Mysis shrimp are found in very cold water. Source wikipedia
