Made a pond/scummy creek ecosystem in a large jar about 4 months ago. Had lots of little things including some tiny water slugs, after a little while everything died and went dark and gross and it’s starting to clear up and life is showing again. So far all I have seen are these guys. What are they??? (New Zealand)

Copepods 🙂
Maybe copepods or if Y shaped, a daphnia
It’s too blurry and far away to see what they are on my phone. I tried using a magnifying program but that’s when it looks blurriest. I am guessing they are some kind of freshwater shrimp?
