Triops

From the age of the dinosaurs comes the amazing Triops. This giant of the temporary pond dates back to the time when the earth trembled under the mighty steps of Tyrannosaurus rex. It will fit in a fish tank - but don't let its size fool you. How does it work? Easy. Triops comes to you in a state of suspended animation. These nearly hatched eggs remain like this for years - or until you decide to bring them back to life by adding distilled or spring water. They hatch within 24 hours and quickly grow up to 2" long. Feed them twice daily and your Triops will live 20 to 70 days - unless, of course, they are eaten alive by their cannibal siblings. Want to know more?
