Been away for a decade or so... decided to jump back in a couple months ago. Bought a coral today and see a couple of these critters swimming around in my holding"tank". Any ideas what it is?

Looks like an amphipod. Good guy

Harmless, beneficial amphipod. They're mainly nocturnal, you likely have a bunch of them.

Thanks!! He didn't make it to rock safety when I put him in the tank. Fish got him like a bass would a worm!

large mouth, small mouth, white or striper? I guess we’re fellow bass fishermen
