i had sea monkeys and its been 2 weeks since i put them in and all i see is little things swimming around about the size of a millimeter or a half of a millimeter so how long will it take to get full grown. is it a glitch and they wont grow. I heard that they can live 2 years so maybe it takes longer to grow then triops because they only live for 2 weeks or 3 weeks but they grow fast but maybe since the sea monkeys live for 2 years they take a wile to grow. so how long does it take

i don’t want to pull it of in case it hurts him, should i just leave it? it is so big its like double his size! its all algae and food its stuck on one of the tails. thanks alot
will try that now thanks
I bought some Triops on eBay, and I don’t know what a good size habitat for them is. I was planning on buying one from a Pet store.
The container is perfect except that I’m not sure the size is enough. Everyone says the depth isn’t nearly as important as the length and width.
It’s 6″x9.2″x6.6″ (6 liters) (4.6 Square feet)
Is that big enough?
Also, if that’s too big (or bigger than it needs to be) how about:
4.4″x7.13″x5.5″ (2.8 liters) (2.6 square feet)
UPDATE;
I just read some guides, and most say to add NO MORE than a liter of water. If I got with the larger container, I could only fill it a little over one inch of water at the MOST, which seems too shallow to me. Thoughts?
If you think I should hatch them in a small container (like a cup), and then transplant them, when do I move them, and to which container? Most guides say wait until Day 8 (when they are big enough to move), what do you think?
Also, should they be moved to the bigger container of the two I listed?
Our triops have hatched and i am wondering how long it will take for them to reach full size.
My Triops are 9 days old and only 1 cm long, have they reached adult size?
