[APD] GOOD MEETING!

Quite possibly springtails. Do a search on them in APd and you'll finds lots of posts, such as this:

They are essentially harmless.

Subject: [APD] strange insects on water


This morning I was looking over my forty gallon planted aquarium when I
noticed small brown insects, about the size of a period, hopping around on
the surface of the water.  They tend to congregate wherever a leaf touches
the surface.  The fish seem to have no interest in them, is this going to
become a problem?  has anybody else seen this?
