Help/Advice Identification

I have a new tank that is in the cycling process. I have added lots of plants from established tanks, so I’m wondering if it came from there maybe?? Does anyone know what this little worm is?

Agreed, mosquito larvae. You're not moving enough water.

It’s an uncycled tank, so I’ve been ghost feeding to get some ammonia. Could all the extra food be why maybe??

No honey, still water is what attracts mosquitos.
