What are these white bugs? Copepods?

Are these white bugs? copepods? There about 5-8mm in size and all over my rock work and bases of corals.

Those are amphipods. Good to have in a tank. They are detritivores. Cheers!

Thanks! I didn’t know they where that big

+1 on amphipods, good little guys, and yes they are much bigger than your standard little copepod.
