What is a triop and can I keep them in a community fish tank?

I was off college and was at the bookstore with a date, and I discovered these “science” project kits. They were made for kids, but being a lover of plants and animals, I found the Triops kit the most interesting. It reminded me of the “seamonkies” kits you usually see in Walmart or the “grow your own butterflies” kits on commercials.

Such kits seem so tiny for the animals to thrive and live long lives and are considered cruel (to me, anyway).

I’m a fishkeeper and own two community tanks. Would I be able to buy triops and keep them in my 29g tropical freshwater aquarium?
My 29g is understocked with 5 platies and a betta.
I wish to add bamboo shrimp afterwards.

This is a video of a prehistoric creature that lived in during the triassic period. These are called Triops, but my son calls them cytrops.

What’s a project I can do with my triops?

A test to see what tempreture they grow fastest in, or something. Anything that will be interesting.
I’m not sure what I want to do.

Obv. not something that’s going to harm them.

Any ideas? Or do I need to explain more..?
