    It's an amphipod.

    Edit

    Now after watching the last few seconds a dozen times.....

    It looks like a fry.

    That would be cool as hell!

    I would say a fish, but it is hard to say at this stage.

    Ok, It is about 1/4 inch long and it is in my overflow! The only fish I have 2 of, are purple fire fish. It was moving pretty quickly and didn;t respond negatively to light. Should i put some crunched up flake food in there?
