A water flea has only a distant relation to land-based fleas, but takes its name from its flea-like motions. Some water fleas live in acidic swamps. Land-based fleas, which bite and suck the blood of humans and animals, are different from water fleas. Water fleas consume organic material found at the bottoms of streams as well as bacteria that float in water.
