Day 32:

You can see the egg sacs as dark shadowy bits on each side, silhouetted against the carapace.


Next to my hand, for scale. I have very large hands, mind you.

Laying eggs. I swear, they're egg-laying machines. That's all they do, all day long, just lay and lay and lay!

Again for scale, that's a Tetra heater, the same one in the older picture. Heehee, they grew so much!

Nom-nomming on the moss... Their mouths are about 1mm wide.

Day 34 (today):
The one on the left kicked sand all over the one on the right. They're like the cartoon dogs that send up sprays of dirt between their rear legs when they're digging up gardens.

The sand was even when I did the water change on Sunday. They seem to have a habit of facing the left while they lay, kicking the sand towards the right, and now the sand is five times deeper on the right end. This is the left, around the flowerpot - it's almost barebottom over here.

All four triops, three of which are laying eggs...

Sometimes they dash up to the surface and flit around. If there's food floating there, they sometimes grab it and carry it back down.
