Bidoof the Triop: Days 10-12

Sadly, this is the final video of Bidoof the Triop, as he passed away sometime after the 12th day that I filmed him. He lived for about a month, and I honestly miss him. He was a cute little guy, and he was a lot of fun. This is also my 400th video, and I feel it is fitting that Bidoof’s final appearance should occur at such a milestone. Even though it is the final video, it is also my favorite, because it is how I remember him most closely, and he is at his most active and cutest… okay, I’ll stop babbling now.

Triops Longicaudatus Video Journal Days 1-2

Triops Longicaudatus Days 1-2. Hatching them using the floating tank method, can’t see them in this video because they are really small but they are there :) . They are very lively already and they swim all around the tank looking for food.

First Triops you see is Giardia. She is 15 days old and has egg sacs. The second Triops is Triops #3, the youngest at 11 days old. However, Triops #3′s sister Triops #2 has egg sacs already. Triops #2 and Triops #3 are related to each other, but are not related to Giardia per’se… Giardia came from my first Triassic Triops envelope that I bought in the city I reside in, and Triops #2 and Triops #3 came from the Triassic Triops envelope in a different city.
