It might be good, wenn sie Deutsch sprechen! ;) But for English speakers, this yahoo group is probably better... Sam PS: My outdoor triops tank is going...
Does anyone grow their triops outdoors? A few years ago, In Kaneohe, I used a long "sweater box" for some triops that grew large and happy in my yard. Would...
Hi Stewart Thanks for the advice. I have just a regular bubbler but I wonder if it might be too strong? I see it creating a small current, but still, one...
Yeah! "The Hawaii Guy" (Sam) has an outdoor setup that they're doing fabulously in! I'm sure he'll tell you all about it. I love hearing his stories, so Sam,...
Heheh, well, actually I am concerned right now over the temperature. We've got a "cold snap" in Hawaii, and temps are going down to high sixties by day and...
By a remarkable coincidence, I got a phone call from a friend of mine, who is the executive director of the Kahoolawe Island Reserve Commission, and he told me...
Sorry, the avi file was too large, so I couldn't post it in the files section. I did post a montage of a few pics of the triops as a single powerpoint slide in...
Don, How much sand(?) do you put at the bottom of the kiddie pool? I had considered a bucket, but it gets quite warm here during the day. Whatever you use...
Rasing is spelt wrong. It is "raising". Ha ha ha. Sorry. ________________________________ From: Don Dasis <dadasis@...> To: triopsforever@yahoogroups.com...
How often does everyone change their water? I'm particularly curious about peoples formula for the early stages. Do you just add water the first week or so, or...
I never change water, when hatching and for the first two weeks I just add a small amount of water to compensate for evaporation. I use only deionized water....
I keep my Triops outdoors and change water every other day, removing half and adding conditioned tapwater, but this is Hawaii and the water quality here is...
Kind of off subject, what about "sea monkeys"? I've been wanting to get a sea monkey kit for my girls, and I remember when I was a kid, you always ran out of...
Unless Don meant "racing", those big kiddie pools make for good circular laps once you train your champion triops. ;) ... -- Samuel M. 'Ohukani'ohi'a Gon III ...
I imagine you'd train them with carrot shavings held over them with tweezers, eh? [?] Perhaps a new event in the Animalympics? xo, AJ "If you want the...
I usually put in enough sand to cover the bottom, if I plan on harvesting eggs from them I take the adult triops out of the pool and place them in an aquarium....
I have brine shrimp. I just pour salt randomly. But I just found out sea monkeys and brine shrimp are different. REALLY DIFFERENT! But none of mine grow to...
Hi all!! It's so nice to see a group just for tripos. I have a few questions. I started my eggs in a 1 gal fish bowl with gravel on the bottom, turtle heat...
What kind of substrate do you use for harvesting the eggs? And how much do you use? (1/2 deep?) ... harvesting eggs from them I take the adult triops out of...
I always use fine grained sand, it is sold in some stores for children's sandbox. use 1/4 inch deep. D. ... From: shinchanian <no_reply@yahoogroups.com> ...
Most likely osmotic shock killed them, you should have put small amounts of water from the 5 gal tank into the fishbowl over a couple days time so they could...
I dumped a bunch of worms in my triops tank and the only way I can describe it is a vicious attack. (Hence my title) Has anyone else noticed this with any...
Yes I see it all the time when I feed my triops worms, sometimes several triops will attack the same worm like little piranhas. Also the worms will stay alive...
... Well I've noticed that Triops seem to be attracted to animate objects which are smaller than themselves. You can see this if you add live Daphnia to their...
