are all bugs good?

[stevel]

Since taking my fish out of the main tank to treat them for ick in the hospital tank my main tank has become loaded with bugs. There are hundereds of them and many different kinds. They are all over the sand,glass and lr even with the lights on.Are all these bugs good? It looks kind of creepy.

Amphipods, copapods, and most isopods are all good guys. Nothing to worry about.

For the most part the diversity is a good thing for your system. They are probably out more now due to the lack of predators. Put the fish back and you'll probably see them less. They'll still be there but not as obvious.
