Triops Longicaudatus hatching journal day 4 and 5 – The Great Re-Hatching

Days 4 and 5 of hatching triops logicaudatus eggs. Had to put in new eggs since my power went out for a whole day. If you want to know why I’m using distilled water or why I am shaking it up first you need to watch the “Hatching triops reliable method” video. Lots more Triops stuff at www.triopsguys.com.

A-Cross Triops longicaudatus Tonto National Forest Arizona

These are Triops longicaudatus I found in the Tonto Basin, Arizona, late summer 2008. They live in an earthen cattle tank that drys out each year. It was unusual for this tank to have water this late in the summer.

Triops longicaudatus & Triops cancriformis

These are a few triops I hatched from dessicated eggs. The Triops longicaudatus are the active ones in the first part of the video, and the Triops cancriformis is the more lethargic one later on. I had a lot of difficulty getting Triops cancriformis to hatch, so I only have one individual from about 8 seperate hatching attempts, and that one took weeks to hatch. The Triops longicaudatus hatched within days without any bother.
