Hello, I'm sort of new to this group - started lurking when I had some Triops in college a few years ago, lost interest when they died. I got some from...
I put a few in my tank to help with the algae growth...That was a bad idea. But in my laziness to clear them out - since they certainly were NOT helping, I...
... Plenty. But that's a big list. ... They're not poisonous if alive. The flesh decays and leeches ammonia into the water. Which would be dangerous in...
I had a problem with some snails and my batch of triops eggs. I got 2 pond snails and in a week, boom!, like 20 appear and i put them in my triops tank. They...
I spoted this ad on ebay. Just wanted to know, if you think that is possible. I find it suspicius selling both species (L. apus and L. packardii) together. Do...
L. Packardii is a federally protected species, owning them without the proper permits will get you into big trouble. I suggest you report this listing to Ebay...
... plants can directly utilize the ammonia... they also provide more surface area for denitrifying bacteria... which is the other natural remedy. ... Daphnia,...
... No, ammonia is a form of nitrogen, a toxic waste product from living creatures. Daphnia would just generate more! Plants will eat this as will bacteria....
Hello, Today I will try to breed Sea Monkeys from scratch. I bought the eggs and the Professional Reef Salt. 1. SAN FRANCISCO BAY BRAND 6GM EGGS(20,000...
... Well that looks no bigger than a regular Triops cancriformis. Wild Triops numidicus (aka Triops granarius) grows up to 5" long or 12cm long. Looks like...
I've got T. cancriformis and they're probably every bit a big as that one. It's hard to tell in the video just how big that one is...but it is nice and big:) ...
Hey! I bought the same type as well. SAN FRANCISCO BAY BRAND 6GM EGGS(10.99). And I used sea salt. It had the same results with my friend's brine shrimp. They...
Question: I have a commercially-sold tank of Sea Monkeys right now, and it appears to be getting pretty cruddy. I've been careful not to overfeed them, but...
Is WalMart the store of everything in America because we don't have it here in AUS and this store seems to have everything you want... Anyways... In...
Yes, Wal Mart is The Store of Everything here. LOL!! Although, they usually manage to be OUT of whatever it is I'm looking for. It's like they assign a guy...
The tank that they're in is one of those tiny ones that come with the kit, and there's no gravel or anything in the bottom. What kind of plants can I put in...
I would check out John Bodman's site littleaussieproducts.com he has a lot of 'seamonkey' items, he calls them seadragons, he has really taken the seamonkey...
... Just one point. If you have a bigger tank, you may need to add a substantial amount of food so they find enough to eat. This can mean uneaten food and ...
Hello Again, UPDATE: I messed up! Too much Triops thinking and been a long time since I have raised "Sea Monkeys" or "Sea Dragons" Point "3." is incorrect. ...
John would know all you need to know about seamonkeys. Some critters who would live well with seamonkeys which John has provided in kits would be 'Teeny Weeny...
I've never had a salt water aquarium, but intuitively, I would think that any plant that would live in a salt water aquarium would also work well with you....
Hello Again, Again. Messed up again, again. I visited the website of Instant Ocean(trade mark) to find out why I'm having problems turning the reef salt into a...
I thought I would share some observations I had today and I would welcome all related comments! *Note: when I compare the size of one triops to another,...
... Yeah, I hatched my first batch of Triops about 5 days ago (I think). The biggest Triops are around 2-3 millimeters head to tail and I've already witnessed...
