Ok so I got my pack of triops Thursday. 1/12/12 and they’ve been sitting their since then and I’m a little worried because in my house it gets cold so I made sure that they got a lot of light and heat but the thing is that the lamp heated the water up all the way to 90 degress f and now I’m worried if they’ll hatch I was able to drop the water temperature to 75-80 degrees but I’m still not sure if they’ll still hatch
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.

Triops are crustaceans that look like miniature horseshoe crabs. Triops have a relatively short lifespan of 20 to 90 days and grow quickly to their adult length of one to three inches. How large they grow depends on the amount of light and food they receive. After hatching, they often double in size daily! Each of these packs includes 30-50 cultured Triops eggs, a Triops food packet, a sealed nutrient pack and a direction pamphlet.

Before i had seamonkeys and a few triop eggs were in the pack then all the triops ate the seamonkeys and died… so ive rehatched some old eggs but i didnt think it was gunna hatch so right now there in a pastic button container mabey 8cm by 4cm and 4cm high, we have old fish tanks in the basement but my dad wont let me use them there are about 9 triops babies this is their 3rd day. he keps saying oh eventually there gunna die, move fish to flush down the toilet, but hes joking around because my sister cried for days arfter her last one died. but i know for a fact that they die when they’re too crouded! yes they possibl could die, but i wanna try it again and they’re suffering! how can i convince my dad that they need to be in the old tanks?
penqure, um shut up? he’s not the owner i am. think before you speak, that was just really rude… jeez
