I had those in my 75g.

No, they're definately not daphnia. Daphnia are crustaceans that are completely aquatic. They do not jump in and out of the water.

This is the only similar organism I could find:

Though I'm really not sure how they would get into my tank, so I'm quite interested if anyone that knows what they are responds.

I heard of people having springtails in their tank, that is probably what it is.
