looks like mosquitos and larve.

i have these little boogers up on top flying and zooming around on the surface of my salt tank. i couldnt get any better pics but they are kinda green in color with black on the heads or tails. it looks like those things that you see in freshwater like creeks or something that hang on top of the water any clue to what these are and how do i get rid of them thanx.

The larvae pic looks like epitokes, bistleworm larvae. Nothing to worry about with those.

The other could be a baby dwarf star or a hydroid but it's not that easy to tell. If you can get a pic with it in the water it will have better detail. If either of those I wouldn't be concerned.

Cheers
Steve
