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.
So… I was just fishing out some mosquito larvae from my backyard pond, (to feed to my triops) and I put them in a shallow dish, but..
On closer inspection, I’ve realised I have atleast four different types of water bugs!
I mean like, less than 1mm.
I know which ones are mosquito larvae, but would like to know what the others are.
Any websites that have pictures and tell you what they are?
I’m going to go ahead and feed them anyway, but please keep answering.
