Is this a rotifer?

While I was out of town for the holidays, my fish were a bit over fed. I'm now having a bloom of these critters.

 

Beneficial rotifers from my refugium? Something to be concerned about?

 

Thanks in advance.cbb974ec966a047149bf77fb2ac3e1e8.jpg320d6242884e402dee94c9f0198fce13.jpg

What did you take that picture with? Pretty cool pic! I duno much about pods but if I had to guess I think the tiger pods have the longer tails like that pic.
I took the pic with a cheap little smartphone microscope attachment I bought at (of all places) Jo-Ann's fabric store. I was able to shoot it right through the glass. Something like this.
