What is this hitchhiker?

This came off on a coral dip. Add it or toss it?

Looks like an amphipod but the video was very blurry. If it is an amphipod, then feel free to add it back to the tank. I am not too certain if it is an amphipod though.

Up close I think it’s some kind of pod. It has that digitised Pac-man movement through the water. I thought maybe it was a tiny shrimp.

It basically is.

Nice. I added to in the tank. I hope it survives but doesn’t look like it can breed with anything. There were three others that I picked out during the coral dip, but the iodine eventually did them in.

Yeah, adding back something you've already poisoned is not usually going to end well... I mean the tank will be fine but the critter may not.
Amphipods are tiny crustaceans... shrimp are also crustaceans.
