 :o Not a scooby mate. Have you introduced any live plants to the tank? I'm just thinking that maybe they could have come from a plant that was carrying larva of some sort of fly?

the fact they are flying means they could have come from anywhere.

Have you anything you could cover the tank with to stop them reaching the water?
