Young Triops and Fairy Shrimp

-Not that you have a Crayfish, but if you want some “action” in your crayfish tank, try putting a couple Triops in -And put it on YouTube. I filmed two of my Triops in my crayfish tank, but unfortunatly I missed both the hits. The Triops don’t even recognize danger when they’re face-to-face with it. The Triops are aggressive towards the Fairy Shrimp that are in this video, but the Fairy Shrimp typically avoid them.

Triops and Fairy Shrimp eating

-Triops & Fairy Shrimp. Incase you want to know, Triops have 3 eyes, and obviously hundreds of legs. I also used to have about 300 Daphnia in there. Multiplied from 3 in a week. Then they got eaten when the next batch of Triops hatched. They were only up to 3 mm big. Looked like some sort of parasite. Whatever you do (if you have “Aquasoars”), don’t put them in a fish aquarium. Either they’ll get eaten, or your fish will. As I mentioned, these Triops aren’t even half size, and they grow FAST.

Can triops be in the same tank as small 1-inch minnows? Will the minnows kill triop eggs or infants or attack?

Also, do minnows eat fairy shrimp? I know triops do.

I know I asked this before but no answers.
