Advice on growing triops?

i have a tank with little triops in, there is about 200 as far as i can tell. there is about 10 LTRS of water and i have been feeding them as often as recommended, the water is green with a layer of scum on the top. I know i need to change the water, but there is no way of me changing the water without getting rid of a load of triops in the process. They are way to small and i would end up throwing a load away. Shall i just leave it? and wait til they are bigger. Also they are about three weeks old and they are still abslutely tiny, they don’t seem to be growing, is this normal? also is it normal for there to be hundreds hatching out? I got them in the pack called “triops world” by interplay and i have only used half the pack of eggs.

why have i got so many creatures but only one triop?

all of the things in the water are not triops except my one triop will it eat them all or will they eat the triop one of them is a fairy shrimp but the other hop up and down but are not daphnia and they are some white and others are yellow also my one triop isn’t growing could you please give me a list for all these reasons please also if my triop does grow does it need to mate to produce eggs and how do i know if its male or female also can i buy cheap gravel or sand from the supermarket and also please give me the best possible answers and please explain as much as possible thanks.

Can i put sea monkeys or triops in my tank for my fish to eat?

I was thinking about just dumping the eggs in there

my triops wont hatch?

so 6 days ago, i bought “triop park” and i used spring water and put a light bolb to keep it warm ( turned it of at night ) on the 4th day i couldnt see anything but i added food and more eggs, now its the 6th day, still see nothing so i got the gate seperating the “nusery” from the tank out and added more eggs
