Welcome to R2R!!! Hopefully others will chime in soon with an ID (maybe an amphipod?).

Welcome to R2R! You've joined a great community with lots of friendly folks willing to help when needed. They look like amphipods. Others will chime in.
 
Those are pods and free food for fish and coral

I am pretty sure those are gammarid amphipods, not copepods. Amphipods are noticeably larger (5-7mm) than copepods (2-3mm) and are more bug-like or shrimp-like in appearance.
They are still food for fish and corals as well as nice little clean-up crew.
