what are the best plants for triops?

I’ve never kept triops before and I don’t know what plants are best for planting in their tank for them to eat. I don’t care what they look like so long as the triops like them.

What type of plants would my triops eat?

i dont have any more of the little pellets that the package gave me, and i was wondering what kind of plants would be edible to my triops

How to put mystery snail in a holding container..?

Hello, I currently have a 10 gallon tank with some sand and a few plants. The only inhabitant right now is a mystery snail (my Triops died so hes the only thing left)

I want to get African Dwarf Frogs, but in order to do this, I want to change my substrate from sand to eco-complete (so I can add more plants and theyll stay healthier)

The 10 gallon tank is the only tank I have, so where should I put the snail while I am cleaning the tank? I have small, containers that I can keep him in for the time being, like small glass containers and such.

But for heat, should I just keep a lamp over the container he is in? Or will the intense light harm the snail?

Hornwort or eloda plants for my tank?

Which plant is best for my 10 gallon tank filled with Triops Longicaudatus?
Which is more edible for the triops? (im not saying this will be their main foodsource, but rather a salad bar for them when i am unable to feed them, like when i am at school)
Will any of these outgrow my 10 gallon tank? if so, how can i trim them? can i replant trimmings?

will either of these make my tank cleaner? dirtier?

how can i plant them? i know hornwort is a floating plant but i have no idea what that means

Plants for freshwater aquarium?

I was thinking about adding some plants to my 10 gallon aquarium, primarily just to make it look nicer, and also for my Triops generations to feed on if they ever need to.

any good suggestions freshwater plants? How can i plant them in sand and keep them alive?

Will adding plants to my tank increase the water clarity, or make it dirtier?

thankyou!
