A few minutes of footage of my triops longicaudatus. I have 4 triops, they are about 2 weeks old at the time of uploading. There is also a fairy shrimp. Triops are really cool crustaceans or freshwater shrimps which have been on Earth for about 200 million years (they are the oldest living species of animal in the world today). They have 3 eyes; one is for looking for light to find their way around and the other two are for looking out for predators or food.
-Triops & Fairy Shrimp. Incase you want to know, Triops have 3 eyes, and obviously hundreds of legs. I also used to have about 300 Daphnia in there. Multiplied from 3 in a week. Then they got eaten when the next batch of Triops hatched. They were only up to 3 mm big. Looked like some sort of parasite. Whatever you do (if you have “Aquasoars”), don’t put them in a fish aquarium. Either they’ll get eaten, or your fish will. As I mentioned, these Triops aren’t even half size, and they grow FAST.
