Strange critters in tank !!!

I was admiring my axies this morning when i noticed some rather strange larvae floating in the tank!! but on closer inspection (after using a turkey baster and removing some into a cup) i think they are mosquito larvae !!
i did go into panic mode slightly and done a total water change, thankfully i was nearly ready for a clean anyway so had the water ready in buckets, i have also scrubbed everything in the tank and discarded all the live plants as i know the eggs can stick to plants, and i have have thoroughly cleaned my sponge filter.
i have put fresh plants in and set my tank back up.

however i just need to know if i have missed any eggs and they hatch again, are they any risk to my axies?

i will upload a pic of the critters just incase they are not what i thought they are and are something else.

any info would be great thanx.

Yup, they look like mosquito larvae to me. Shouldn't be a prblem, they won't harm your axies - axies may well eat them. Or you could add a couple of minnows and see if they can eat all the critters before the axies eat them!

ah good, am pleased they'll not harm my axies thanx

Mosquito larvae were my baby axolotl's main food for a large part of there development. The mozzie larvae eat algae and the axolotl eat the mozzies. Breed mozzies in another tank and you have a good free food source. To breed mozzies i put a teaspoon of yeast into a water container in an area where they are likely to be and wait for them to appear.

hmm interesting, i may just try that, as finding live food for babies is a nightmare. Thanx.
