I love Triops

Posts Tagged ‘gallon fish tank’

It’s a well-planted, freshwater tank with peaceful/community fish(plecos). would the triops try to eat my fish or anything, or the other way around??
or basically, would they be able to survive in these conditions at all??

also, is there anywhere i can go to just buy the eggs? i don’t wanna spend $30 on a little kids kit thing from the store…

I have a 50 gallon fish tank with:
5 platys
1 molly
2 glass catfish
2 glo-lite tetras
3 bloodfin tetras
3 neon tetras
7 large platy fry

I want to add triops to my 16 gallon fish tank (which I take perfect care of). I hear that it is ok to add triops to the fish tank, but I have a few questions:

1: Will the triops survive in tap water (that has been treated to remove chlorine and hard metals)?

2: Are the triops able to lay eggs in the tank?

3: If they do lay eggs, will they hatch without draining the water?

If you have ANY info on having triops in the fish tank, please dont hesitate to tell me.

Thank You for your help.
