can you use a normal light to hatch triops?

I just got triop eggs and was going to hatch then my brother says you need a office lamp that points down is this true. Im going to use a heater for heat so I only need the light to hatch them and the light I have is very bright.

Can triops be in the same tank as small 1-inch minnows? Will the minnows kill triop eggs or infants or attack?

Also, do minnows eat fairy shrimp? I know triops do.

I know I asked this before but no answers.

My triop eggs just look like dried up grass or pot, if you will. So uh, are they supposed to be like this?

Yeah, I got triops from a friend like a week ago, and I can’t tell if they accidentally gave me pot or actual eggs. So, yeah. xD And if they ARE the eggs, how do I make them hatch? I mean, I googled stuff, and I know I need a heat source, and purified water, but is there a secret ingredient I’m missed or what?

Can I use something other than spring water for my triops?

I have some triop eggs that I want to hatch. Well I read that you need spring or bottled water to put them in. I don’t have any but I really want to hatch them to show to my friend. Can I hatche them in anything else safely?
