There is a copepod looking thing in my

25 Gal Planted DIY co2

1 Betta

3 Wisteria
2 Diandra
6 Camcomba
1 Amazon Sword
1 Anubias Barteri
2 Red Wendtii
2 Dwarf Saggitaria

I looked some up and copepods seem to have an afiliation with saltwater tanks where az you can see mine is freshwater.

Can anyone elaborate?

There are copepods in FW, cyclops for example. Cyclops are very small. How big is yours?
