Do triops really live?

Question

i seen it on the argos catalogue. can u really keep them as pets

Answer 1

Yes, they do really live. They live in shallow water that dries up at times of the year, so they aren't meant to have a long life span, but they will lay eggs before they die, so you can continue to raise new ones as long as you collect and prepare the eggs properly.

Here's some info on them:

Answer 2

You can keep them as pets, but they don't live that long, pretty much, all they do is grow, eat, breed, and die. They aren't very exciting, but I guess it's worth a try...

Answer 3

There is a kit you can buy to grow them and keep them as pets.It kind of looks like a bigger version of the sea monkey kit.
