What type of plants would my triops eat?
Can I feed Triops sea monkey food?
I’ve raised several batches of Sea Monkeys in the past, so I’ve got quite a bit of food left over. I’m hatching Triops right now, and am wondering if I could just use the sea monkey food while the triops are babies, and then switch to the pellets (that came with the triops) when they are older.
The sea monkey food looks just liked a powdered form of the Triop pellets.

My RES is yawnin when he first gets out of water. It may be a respiratory infection, I can’t take him to vet!?
I have an RES who’s shell is 3″ long and he is in a 5 gallon with a turtle dock, lots of water, and a UVB bulb. He was kept like this for his whole life. My parents say it’s unneccesary to take him to a vet, and non of friends can take him because I don’t trust them. Once I gave my friend some triops and they died. And my friends think turtles can be kept in a tiny plastic container with a bit of water and a small rock. He’s been yawning for the past few days and his shell is also pulled down and is chipped. He is fed pellets, shrimp, and krill. My parents say that in JULY they will give him a good habitat, when they promised my they would give him a good habitat by CHRISTMAS!!! I did so much research and now I’m trying to make a homemade filter for him. I’m doing the best I can, but after I moved I lost all my $400 of allowance, and when I tried to use $160 I got from New Year’s I still can’t use it because my GRANDPARENTS are here and they don’t have a clue, and they think turtles are the easiest pets to own. WTF!!!!!?????
So anyways he yawns when he first gets out of the water, and some people say it’s respiratory infection, but I cant take him to the vet? What do I do? I really don’t wanna give him away and now my parents think that my turtle has a relationship with our family so THEY don’t wanna give him away, but they are abusing and neglecting it and I can’t even give him away, or do much about it until JULY. Help!
