Brilliant is supporting LLM's now and teaching people how to make them, which due to the massive amount of energy they use AND the ethical concerns around plagiarism and generally making the internet slowly unusable means they should not be supported in the least. This runs counter to the message your channel is trying to share and further exacerbating climate change and habitat loss. It was disgusting enough to see Ze Frank still giving ad spots to them, but for this channel it is just gross. edit: I earnestly hope that anyone else that cares about this drops this channel if they do not put out a statement about dropping them in a couple of days.

It makes sense, because when they hatch, there's no guarantee that there's food around. At least one of them needs to get large enough to lay eggs before the puddle dries up. I noticed too that the bigger they became, the fewer they became.

@@scottmoldenhauer8908 Well TBF, the "newbies" who are renaming species are also usually also trusted scientists. Obviously "tadpole shrimp" is no Linnaean binomial or anything so formal but I don't have any reason to believe it's less taxonomically valid than "triops" for a common name at least. That being said, I think writing down every new name you hear for a species is a great idea. Especially considering how much common names can vary by region and even interfere with other species. For example, "daddy long legs" could refer to a spider, a non-spider arachnid, or a huge species of fly, depending on where you are. And that species of fly could also be called a mosquito hawk, not to be confused with the "mosquito hawk" dragonflies. Common names are linguistically cultural, as much prescriptivists might wish otherwise.

I actually didn't know about the thing with Burning Man but I did know about triops (as we call them here), because I live in the Arizona desert and they show up in the monsoon season and it gets mentioned in local media a lot when that happens. It is one of the weird highlights of the monsoon I love. We also get ads about not letting your dogs mess with Sonoran desert toads, staying away from flooded areas and low- lying areas, what to do in a sandstorm, and how downed power lines are lightning rattlesnakes... but those are all PSAs not just DJs and newscasters thinking triops are cool.

I am genuinely surprised that triops could survive at Burning Man. The playa is extremely alkaline, and normally kills bugs pretty quickly.

If you have 20 eggs hatch you will most likely only end up with 2 growing up-to the first molt but only one surviving its first molt. If you decide to try them out good luck!! If you have small children sea monkeys are a better option. No matter what you grow have the tank on a windowsill for the best chances

Long story short we did and I had these little things for a while before they sadly died.

BTW I was so mad once I recently learned that they are considered to be really good when cooked the right way. I didn't know this and I've filled buckets of them and dumped them out so many times!
