A strange thing hatched in my Triops kit?

I bought this triops kit from a website, and weird things hatched in it. Only one of them appears to be a triops, and about 5 weird shrimp things hatched too. Are they shrimp? They’re actually kind of cute and they do cool flips, so I’m not upset about that packaging mistake. But there’s also this strange, creepy looking thing, that’s very small, white, and a bit translucent, but it’s still visible. I have no idea what it is. It has the body shape of an owl, and it has little black eyes on each side of it’s upper half. It also has what appears to be antlers, shaped like little Ys on its head, and the fan part of the Y is webbed. It doesn’t glide about the water like the others; it sort of hops about in the fishbowl. It kinda looks like a pokemon >:L What is it?

Can I feed Triops sea monkey food?

I’ve raised several batches of Sea Monkeys in the past, so I’ve got quite a bit of food left over. I’m hatching Triops right now, and am wondering if I could just use the sea monkey food while the triops are babies, and then switch to the pellets (that came with the triops) when they are older.

The sea monkey food looks just liked a powdered form of the Triop pellets.

My Triops Just Hatched!!!?

Ok so last night i put my triop eggs in and today i seen little white speck swimming around in the water. Just a little bit ago i looked in the tank and only seen a few after earlier seeing about 25 and there is a bunch of water conditioner floating aroung on top….could they be hiding in it or are they already being cannibals?????

I accidently overfeed my Triops?

I was pouring in a little bit of bit of the triops food, but then a firework went of, and i poured it all in accidently, im meant to put in like 1/10 of the bag, but now all of it is in the tank. Will they die, because i have overfed them? :(

Is it bad if my triops after swimming into the wall?

My triops have just hatched, and i have been checking on them every hour, and they just seem to be swimming into the wall, every so often they might swim around somewhere else, but its usually just swimming into the wall, so im a bit concerned, is this bad?
