i am interested in keeping triops in my pond. i know that they are naturally found all around the world, and can live through drouts(bad spelling) and probably can live through the winter(because of there eggs) is this possible?
my pond is full of rain water, i allready have gold fish in the lower part and plan on getting triops for the top.i have a turtle with the fish so he wont be able to get to them.

Hi I am getting some Triops from this catologe and i am getting then in a week or so and I need information on how to breed them. My betta breeding didn’t work so i disided to breed Triops!

Well please give me answers quick I need all the help i can get!!!! Thank you

I got a box of triops and and now that the animals in the tank have grown big, half of them look like miniature horseshoe crabs but the other half look like orange sea monkeys! The sea monkeys have been eating the triop food that came with the kit. I’ve had sea monkeys before, and they ate different food, like algae that grew in their tank.
Are there supposed to be sea monkeys in a triop kit?
Do the triops eat sea monkeys?
(The triops are insane–they swim in circles and upside down and hog the all food and ram into the sea monkeys )

I do have a clump of java moss in there. I was thinking something along the lines of Bettas, or african dwarf frogs. Any other suggestions…..
No sea monkeys or triops. Been there done that.

how can i make my pet triops get really big?
