I did get my water from Tesco, but it's some spring water from the Campsies or something, rather than di-ionised. The tank I was using for hatching is just the...

Thanks for the reply, Stuart. I am not sure it is New Tank Syndrome but I'm sure you have more experience than I do. I am still really curious to know why the...

I'm new here and I just hatched what I'm thinking to be triops but I'm not sure. The package says triop eggs but there 3 days old now and they look like brine...
... This is a very common question. Read some of our archives. Look up fairy shrimp. That's a clue btw. -- Stuart Halliday http://mytriops.com/ 200 Million...
