Has Anyone Ever Had Triops?

It says in the instructions that I have to use spring water to raise these things. I have a spring near my house and I was wondering if that water would be ok to use.
And for anyone who is curious as to what Triops are here is a video I found. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U2Do30X9vdA

Please help with hatching triops?

I tried to grow some Triops the other day, I used bottled spring water, and the Triops detritus and eggs that came with the package. I kept the water at about 23 – 24 degrees but after 3 days there is nothing hatched at all? I’m thinking of trying again with water that I’ve retrieved from the river near us, is that a good idea?
