amphipod? baby bristle?

Can anyone ID this bug? I found several in my bristle worm trap this morning. Pics aren't great but its the best I could do.

Have to wonder if the bristleworm(s) you were trying to catch didn't direct the pods into the trap

Lol..yeah right. Actually I have caught about 10 bristle worms o far...

i would cut back on the feeding. the bristle worms are eating left overs and that's why you are seeing so many of them. they are helping you out. if you can't stand them, you need to ease up on the feeding.
those amphipods are also cleaning up leftovers.
