    I gave my teacher the money and order form in an envelope, and she forgot to send it. I asked her about it about a month later when she realized she’d forgotten anyone had given her the money :(

    They have whole sets with tanks and everything.
    I want some too, and I thought it would be cool to find someone else who wants some and we could put them in on the same day, and post videos to compare them…
    plz send me a message if u want to!

  11. it should say in the booklet they come with what to feed them, and the ones i grow do not bite. i dont think they need to be handled anyway. you can feed them granular fish food, a small piece of grated carrot. triops can eat many things. ive seen someone us a worm, or a piece of lettuce too. they wont grow more than a few inches. good luck!!

  12. you mean the detritus food for when theyre babies? if youve started feeding them adult food yes, if theyre still tiny squigglies, leave it there until theyre old enough to eat adult food.
