Found this the day morning after planting my Walstad tank. What could it be?
Got some nice 4k macro shots of it so you can really see the detail. It's roughly half an inch long and super skinny. It almost looks like a hornwort leaf(needle?) until you look at it closely.

Huh.... Strange. Looks like some sort of larvae or nymph, but I don't know what it could be from...
 
That's what I thought. Almost thought it could be a damselfly or dragon fly nymph at first but its not quite a match.
Yah... Definitely strange looking 😅.
Kinda looks like the insect version of a type of goby lol
 
Maybe that but like others have said, it does look quite different from it as well
