Hey all i am new to forum as of today so I hope I am posting in right place. It has taken me 30 minutes just to figure out how to post. LOL

I have a small pond that is inside my lanai. I have these little bugs in my pond that have been eating and killing my pond lillies. The lily leaves dont have huge holes in them, they just seem to be getting brown and dying. I am not sure if they are aphids because most of the posts i read said that aphids only stay on the leaves, but these critters are both on the leaves and free swimming in my pond and there are thousands of them. I have tried to flush out as many as i can but I'm not sure what Im dealing with. Any help?
 
Moved to Pond/Water Gardens section. I'm not sure what they are but hopefully someone else will chime in. Good luck! Welcome to AA!
