What's This Thingy?

Appears to be a little crustacean of some sort?

Difficult to identify it 100% from that picture, but it looks like it could be a type of Saron shrimp see here.

It does look like it a bit. Do you think you could get a better pic?

Hmmm, doesn't look like the Google pics of a saron shrimp. Unfortunately I can't get a better pic, it was probably only a quarter of an inch long and has disappeared. Its head is at the top of the pic I posted, and it had three little prong things on its rear, if that helps... You can see them in the pic, the right one looks bent toward the center.
