Product Description

Product Description

Triops Longicaudatus (aka Triops) are fascinating creatures that first came into existence during the Triassic era whilst T-Rex, Triceratops and other dinosaurs still dominated. Their eggs evolved to survive period of drought, only to hatch once there has been sufficient rainfall. This rare characteristic enables us to safely store them until a time it is convenient to care for them. Their relatively simple care, fascinating properties, energetic behaviour, reasonable size and short life-span, lends them excellent educational value whilst being fun, curious pets too. The small pack contains a packet of eggs that hatch into Triops once added to bottled water.

5.0 out of 5 stars Triops, 11 Jun 2009

Durability:4.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars 
Triops are brilliant! I bought a pack for my daughter who is dinosaur mad. They are an ancient life form from the dinosaur times. They are fun to hatch and watch each day as they grow quite quickly. Triops are easy to feed and interestingly are also meat eaters so when one dies the others will eat it! We were grossed out by it but couldn't help but watch with interest anyway!! They live for up to three months but you are supplied with enough eggs to hatch some more out and start all over again. A fun and quirky pet!

4.0 out of 5 stars Triops, 6 Oct 2009
Durability:1.0 out of 5 stars Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars 
My science obsessed son (age 9) loved this, they had some/he got the idea from his school. A project that requires patience and the ability to control an environment
(fussy little buggers-narrow temp. range NO CHLORIDE in H2O etc.)Fascinating to observe/feed, but not long lived, not too many tears before bed time though, the ones at school only lasted until the room got too hot.
