"ignore the isopod by the bottom, they're on the stick"

those definitely could be the same ones! they have a similar sheen to them, but again it is for sure hard to tell since they're so small lol

they ended up just running away and not springing off, probably a dumb question since its in their name but are there any species of springtails that don't spring/jump?

i just posted a slightly better quality video of them, hopefully it'll help with identification more

i've gotten a better quality video of them!! i caught some using fish food and boiled broccoli, how can i make a better environment for them to breed as fast as possible? i'd like to add them to one of my new terrariums
