  • What temp and what do you feed them?

    I have them in my yards pond (Florida) but was never able to keep them alive in my planted tank for long.

    I do not have fish just plants and scuds and daphnia as like the tiny inverts. I thought of addind triops but read they will kill the other inverts.

  • @BrownDarter The best temperature range is 68~80F. Yard pond is much complicate than aquarium tank. If you apply air pump, it may extend their life span. Also, triops will not harm other creatures, because your pond contains lot of food for them. But, I'm not sure about triops can help for the shrimp's life.

  • Look like sea-monkey at first, visit the site and they are much more types than sea monkeys

  • @treeofnature They are not sea-monkey. Sea-monkey is brine shrimp, they live in salty water. But these fairy shrimps live in fresh water.

  • @CoolTriops5 Sorry for too late response. I don't know it is still helpful, but if the shrimps still alive, then feed them with green water. You can feed them with baker's yeast when they are young, but it's been over 6 days and the shrimps may die by late yeast feeding. So, I don't want recommend that way, green water is much better for that age of shrimps. If you don't have green water, use very small amount of yeast after mixing well to water.

  • The website in the description is a good website with good product and information, but it just needs better grammar.

  • @ArizonaFairyShrimp hey i m mreddierubio i just made another acount. i got a question. i got a kit and i poured the triop eggg content and a fairy shrimp thing hatched and i was like :o . wht do i feed it ? i m pretty sure its a fairy shrimp

  • @MrEddieRubio Sure, when they are small, Triops can hunt the fairy shrimp. But, Triops can't catch them when the shrimps fully grew up, they are too large (2 inch max).

  • @Kidsmush nope these are freshwater sea monkeys are saltwater

  • Thanks my dad was on your site order form (paypal) as he wanted to order some eggs from them and another invert but it did not take VISA .

  • same thing like seamonkeys
