How to Care the Triops.1. Fill your tank with about 1 litre (1/4 of gallon) distilled or bottled spring water. Make sure the water is 22 degrees Celsius (73 degrees Farenheit) and there is a light before adding the eggs. 2. Stir in your packet of triop eggs and wait for at least 18 hours. After this time, look closely at the tank..3. Wait another 3 days AFTER the majority of triops have hatched. After that waiting period, you can raise the water temperature to 25 degrees Celsius (77 degrees Farenheit)and have them on a day/night schedule. Feed them the food the kit gave you or use tropical fish pellets, not goldfish pellets. Crush them between two spoons, then add half of this to the tank.4. Continue to feed once a day till they are 5 days old,then they eat 2-3 times a day. At 7 days and over, feed them a full pellet to each triops 2-3 times a day. Keep feeding till they don't eat anymore, then take out the excess food they don't eat.
