What is this?

I was looking at my reef tank while the lights were still off and I saw something move very quickly over the rock into a hole, I only have 2 clownfish the tank so I know it had to be something else in the tank, I grabbed my phone and turned on the flash light and started recording and saw this.

Just a pod. No worries.

That's among the better videos of an amphipod I've seen!

They're small scavengers, and mostly harmless - some folks have accused them of attacking zoanthids, most find them helpful.
