Help to identify these bugs?

[Mikel7099]

With lights off. Found a ton of these little bugs running all over my tank. They look like they have blue on them. I took video but I can’t get it to load. Sorry for bad pic. These things are fast too!

Can't see clearly for a positive id. But look up chiton and see if that matches what you have.

Could they be baby octopi?

Try to catch some in a cup to get better photos.

I have no idea what they are. I know they bother my fish when they are sleeping at night. I will try and catch some tonight when lights are off. That’s the only time I see them out

I have a Manderin goby and it looks like he won’t eat them. At least I don’t see him eating them.

It would be very hard to give you an exact ID but I believe it's a copepod from the harpacticoida family. Like said above I would try and get some clear pictures/videos of them and maybe we can get a better ID for you.

Agree with @Lovemyreef2015
