[@camestry__6531]

Do your tiops breed and if they do do you just keep the water? Im trying to figure out why they HAVE to have a dry period just to hatch.

[@TriassicParkTriops]

They are vernal pool inhabitants in nature. It really lies in their nature aswell: Triops hatch in pools filled with rainwater, during spring there are sometimes rain storms that cause large puddles to occur. The eggs sense the fresh rainwater and start to hatch as the pool water starts to warm up during a warmer spring day. Several weeks / months later the colony has already naturally died or the pool slowly starts to dry out killing the last inhabitants of the tiny bit of water left. While they were in these puddles they released tons of eggs, just after two weeks of age. They will do so, on a daily basis and continue to do so till the very end sometimes. For this reason, they dont live in lakes or rivers, its a whole different type of " water inhabitant" if you look at it hahahah. I hope that sheds some light on the case 🙏

[@DLCoates1]

The ones that were “digging” had clear egg pouches and were burying eggs. He probably does gather them occasionally.

We had some triops a few years ago. It was our first time and our tank wasn't perfect but one triops lived for a long time, we named him Jerry. He was excellent and his very favourite thing was to be fed pellets with a pipette - my husband used to literally give the pellet to Jerry, and Jerry would get SO excited and then grab onto the pellet and gently sink, upside-down, to the floor. We loved Jerry.

I usually raise colonies of 75ish Triops, I use multiple hatching units of 0,5L and a dedicated hatching tank (25L) before they enter the 60L. Naupliar loss is something i always witness, i guess this is Just survival of the fittest.

@@TriassicParkTriops thanks for the response. How many eggs do you put in each hatching unit and how many triops typically survive in each unit?

@@gilb6643I'm sorry I didnt see your comment earlier I was on vacation, I Usually drop in around 200-300 eggs for a 75 ish Colony

the biggest triops i grew were maybe 2cm from a kit as a kid, didn't realise they grow so large, now i'm thinking to revisit them again

I love triops! How many eggs, or packets did you use to hatch so many? I've only used the toyops eggs and usually get 3.

Heyo Ricky! This is a result of Triassic Park Triops chain-hatching, 3 hatcheries with 60 eggs each ( Mystery Kit Type I from Triassic Park Triops) 🙏 I sell high quality pure eggs, hand-counted etc. If you're interested feel free to mail me at [e-mail]

In all years of my life, I've seen all sorts of living fossils, but never have a seen this little acrobatic speedster before. Over 250 Million Years and nothing has changed--bravo Triops they're going places xD

Little bit of Foo the Flowerhorn energy. Needs more close-up shots of them eating, some relaxing music, and water changes to really get that energy flowing.
