Description

What exactly are Triops? -- Triops longicauditus are crustaceans that can be traced back to the prehistoric times. These slightly creepy three-eyed creatures grow up to 3 inches in length in their 20-90 day life span, sometimes doubling in size in a single day!

Triops are brightly colored due to hemoglobin in the blood and pigment in their connective tissue. Very resourceful, they obtain oxygen from the water through their feet and sometimes swim on their backs, sweeping food into their mouths using their many legs.

These intriguing creatures make great pets as they are very interesting to observe.

With this kit, learn while having fun growing amazing Triops that date back to the dinosaur era. The kit contains everything you need to grow, observe, experiment and document the life cycle of an amazing creature. Just add water and the fun begins. They are guaranteed to hatch in 24 hours. Triassic Triops are actual prehistoric creatures which are identical to their prehistoric kin. They survived the centuries during interrupted states of suspended animation or diapause. This state of suspended animation enables the Triops to survive seasonal drought.
