Part one of a short how to video on hatching Triops / Fairy Shrimp eggs. How to Hatch Triops / Fairy Shrimp prt 1 www.youtube.com
these little critters hatched about 2 weeks ago in water i was about to throw out as was stagnant and not looking like any of the triops were going to hatch, but wow these guys are really growing fast and so far…. fingers crossedf theres not been any losses through canabalistic behaviour as they are famous for eating each other, nice lol not these are so interesting and better than sea monkeys or brine shrimp in my opinion. so enjoy and look forward to your comments, please be nice though, cheers Triops cancriformis are not the same as the commonly sold Triops longicaudatus, a species which needs heated aquaria for raising. T cancriformis is happy in water that you’d keep your goldfish in 20 Celsius compared to 28 c for T Longicausdatus *No heaters required*. T cancriformis also happens to be the largest Triops species in the world with some individuals measuring in at a colossal 4.5 inches (11 cm) in length. To give a comparison, this giant out grows the common T longicaudatis by nearly double its size!
