Are there any bad ones I should be looking out for

No, all good. Nothing to worry about. They will bloom as algae and other food sources spike, as in a newer tank, for example. Population will stabilize overtime. If they persist in large numbers and bother you, you could get a wrasse to eat them.

Bad....Not really it depends what you are trying to achieve. Some copepod spices will hunt down smaller spices example Tig will eat tis when food supplies are scarce. Amthipods will also eat copepods

Great members of a healthy tank---and a buffet line for wrasses
