This is a remarkable video, and chironomids are essential prey for the fish we like to catch including bluegill (lepomis Machrochirus). Thank you for posting this!

How can the population of mosquito-like pests infesting a particular hotel's STP be reduced, as their presence is significantly disturbing the staff?

[@serkanbaydemir7843]

Hello, I have an aquarium. Would you mind if I give it to my fish?

[@dogsexplained]

Great photography! Can you tell me what the eggs look like? Are they jellylike and laid under the surface? Thanks!

Hi, how long it take from larvae to fly?

[@BCFlyguys]

The cycle is typically one year but some species have multi year cycles

[@aryadipramono]
