You mean the sea fleas, aka sea louse? They are good copepods

 

[dale]

do fleas actually swim around?,, i have other ones that look kinda like fleas but they dont swim..
i cant even get a good look at them with the magnifying glass

 

[chrisstevens]

Those look like the pods that are like little shrimp, i have them too

 

[scubasteve]

if it swims around and looks like a tadpole thats a definite copapod(kinda hard to see on my cell) the ones that crawl around the rocks and glass that normally have the bent j look on bigger ones are amphipods but if you got crap tons of copepods you have a heaven for a mandarin

copepod above swims like tadpole

Amphipod will be on glass sandbed and rock unless you brush them off
