Was quarantining some moss and seen these larva growing in the tank trying to figure out what larva they are and if fish can eat them

Do they hang out with one, almost forked end, attached to the side at the surface, and the almost round other end hanging straight down?

Do they swim with a herky jerky movement of folding in half and then straightening out?

If yes, you have mosquito larvae.
