They look thirsty as hell. Top dress with some Diatomaceous earth, get a stick yellow trap near each stalk and drown them bitches with gnatrol or mosquito bits. Sometimes gnat infestations can get bad enough where it really affects the plants. Plants start showing what looks like deficiencies or burns, falling leaves etc. I had a problem with them and I got them under control but not gone yet. Other than that your plant looks fine.

Actually, I looked at the picture closer so I take back the, your plant looks fine, part. Looks like you have more than just the bugs you mentioned. Get a handheld micro scope and look around.

ants can mean that you might have aphids they usually only come around to feed on smaller insects ( just a thought)
