If it killed your fish then what you had prior was a carnivore isopod that I believe attacks fish gills. Cirolanidae isopods. You can search the forums for more posts about those.

Back to your original question though, this is a beneficial amphipod.

I had a infestation of parasites, so anytime I find anything not normal I start researching
