Triops Longicaudatus
Currently have pics and vids of Triops longicaudatus. Can't have Triops right now, because I have bettas in the Kritter Keepers. But when I do I am going to hatch out another species.

I found a seller on AB that carries Triops Australiensis, if you're interested when you can have them again. :)

Okay, my idea.
Yes, get some exotic ones! I'm going to order some of the Australian ones (yay payday), or some other exotics, if I can find them. I'd like to experiment over the summer and see if we need to create some separate caresheets.

I think there are few others, but they are not located in the US. Personally, I only buy in the US if I can to support the US and to reduce shipping problems.

Well, there's gonna be another one soon. If I'm going to be running all these setups over the summer, I'm going to be selling those eggs.

Triops Longicaudatus
Using my new camera, I take a photo of my eggs that I have left from when I had Triops. Camera wouldn't fit any further down the container.
