Features lots of information on tadpole shrimp. Contains FAQ, description of habitat, and links to related sites. Since I first designed this page in 1997 the number of pages about Triops has gone up from ~10 to over 8,000 Clearly, there has been a dramatic increase in interest in these freshwater crustaceans I have received many inquiries about these shrimp since they have been sold in various novelty stores see side bar for various locations selling Triops, which are sometimes also called Aquasaurs or Living Fossils. Hopefully, this page will answer most of your questions regarding Triops, and in general pique your interest in these fascinating critters. If you are also interested in other similar crustaceans the category of crustaceans which includes Triops is called Branchiopods, see my other pages on other types of branchiopods especially clam shrimp. Also, an excellent video has been produced by Bullfrog Films, Inc. on branchiopods, which I highly recommend for those interested in these unique critters
