www.amazon.com Triassic Triops’ fossil history dates back 200 million years, to the time of the dinosaur. Triops are crustaceans that look like miniature horseshoe crabs. Witness how suspended animation saved this creature from extinction. Each kit is complete; containing everything you need to grow these amazing pets.

This little beast is something I hatched at work a few weeks ago. Called Notostraca (triop), this is an animal that has remained unchanged for over 220 million years, which makes it the olderst living animal species on earth. Having survived dinosaurs, mastadons and neanderthals, the triop will probably be doing it’s thing long after we are dust. The music is Javanese Temple music; the warriors dance.

Is an aqarium heater ok to place in the Triops container that came with the kit?

Posted on July 7, 2010 by admin| 1 Comment

I purchased the Triassic Triops Deluxe kit.
The heater would assure the right temp. for the Triops, as I don’t have a lamp. The only thing I have is a 5 gallon aquarium and it has the growing light in the hood, and it’s next to my computer monitor. Would both be sufficient lighting for the Triops to grow, and food value (algae) wise?
The kit comes with food. I read they also need the algae as well.
