My water for Triops dipped to 70 degrees last night, will they still hatch?

Posted on May 8, 2012 by admin| 2 Comments

I had my light on and it was doing good for an entire day at 78 degrees but my mom must have turned it off last night Also 3 of the eggs look like their stuck together will they still hatch or should i separate them
I know I ask a lot of questions and someones reading this thinking just READ THE DAMN INSTRUCTIONS STUPID Well I did and it didnt say anything about eggs sticking together or the water temperature dipping below 73 like if you have to dry them out and start again or just rewarm the water Plus my mom isnt helping me with it since shes busy with work and my baby brother so yeah so I turn to the internet for help :D Thanks in advance to anyone who answers without calling me dumb :P

Are triops natural creatures found in the wild?

Posted on December 17, 2011 by admin| 1 Comment

I’m thinking they aren’t considering they need 24/7 lighting and I had them one time, they got to about half an inch and someone turned the light off for the night. xD Yes they were all dead. No where on earth has 24/7 lighting so I don’t think they are natural creatures…Does anyone know?

Got a goldfish from a carnival. What can I do to keep him alive over night until I can get him a tank?

Posted on November 19, 2010 by admin| 6 Comments

Just won a little common goldfish from the fair, but it’s late at night and all the pet supply stores are closed. What steps can I do to keep him alive over night?

I have him in a Tupperware, and I added some distilled water to the water he was in. I figure that have less stuff in it then regular water.

Also, I have some triops food, can I feed him a little?

And if anyone knows of a good little affordable first fish pet tank let me know.
Also, looking at a tank like this:

I know it’s been said that they need a lot of room, but it sounds to be it’s because they just are really dirty. Would it be bad to have a fish in a tank like this and just clean the water more frequently?

Also, he’s about an inch. Dunno if that means anything
